In Sweden there is no institution like mda. By that reason the national body need an organisation in Europe as a centre for development and research. Another function for EMII can be to connect national projects or regional projects. A web builder. During 1990 to 1999 Sweden had a national organisation for documentation and ICT INSAM - , the only international co-operation body for that was CIDOC. Good, but not that stable as an institution like a European mda. Important projects in the EMII sphere from a Swedish point of view: - A European multilingual (co-operative made) Glossary for Documentation. - A European multilingual (co-operative made) minimum standard for Collections Management like Spectrum. - A co-ordinating person or a group of people in European regions for network building. It is important that the development work can be assisted by education in every country. The model could be a centre for education in best praxis, documentation theory and research. The three parts: practice, education and research, need to be connected.
