Join us November 5-7 in Washington, DC for E-Book 2001!
If you're wondering how to incorporate E-Book technology into your life,
your work, or your organization, you'll find much to think about at the 4th
Electronic Book Conference. Sponsored by NISO (http://www.niso.org) and
the National Institute of Standards and Technology, E-Book 2001 brings
together the key players in the E-Book world: the technology experts
(hardware, software, DRM), the content providers (publishers and
aggregators, authors and agents), and the users (educators, librarians,
readers) to examine how this new technology can change the way we think
about books. Conference exhibits will feature the top companies supporting
E-book technologies.
This is a conference that will expand your boundaries.
Check out the conference web site to learn more about the program and to
register: http://www.itl.nist.gov/div895/ebook2001/
