Singapore is a small land that lies on the other side of the world from a European point of view. Why should the libraries there be of interest from a German perspective? In any case, there is quite a lot of interest in the country. As Ulrike Lang, Chairperson of BI International wrote in the 2005 annual report: “Singapore is fast becoming the most popular destination for German librarians. It has been visited not just by individual travellers but also by a group from Section 2 of the DBV.” [Lang 2006]. The author of this book can also be counted amongst the individual travellers. Together with Dr. Raphael Ball, Head of the Central Library at Research Centre Jülich, I had the opportunity to visit a number of libraries in Singapore in March 2005 thanks to generous financial support from BI International [Ball and Mittermaier 2005a]. In 2005 alone, Singapore was visited by (at least) one group of directors from various Goethe Institutes [Paulini 2005], a group of directors from public libraries [Yeo 2005a], the Head of the Centre for Interlibrary Loans Berlin- Brandenburg in Zentral- und Landesbibliothek Berlin [Berghaus-Sprengel 2006], and the former acting director of Universitäts- und Stadtbibliothek Köln [Gabel 2006]
