If you are a trend spotter with a keen interest in and knowledge of the
changing world of libraries, consider participating in "What's Hot and
What's Not: Incoming and Outgoing Technologies and Services," a session
at the annual ARLIS NA Conference, to be held in Denver, CO, May 1-5,
2008.
With the world of information and information-sharing in constant flux,
how do arts librarians keep abreast of trends in library resources,
technologies, and services? And, are the trends in academic libraries
equally meaningful for museum or public libraries?
Selected panelists must be able to give a dynamic 15-20 minute
presentation that is focused on one library type (academic, public, or
special), with an eye toward resource-sharing, services, collection
management, Web 2.0 tools, services, etc., that impact art and
architecture libraries and librarians. The session will serve as a
snapshot of future trends.
Selected virtual poster sessions--modeled after the hugely popular Eye
to I sessions at ALA [http://eye2i.wordpress.com/]--will complement the
Denver session and allow for greater participation by the ARLIS NA
membership
If interested in either opportunity, please send an abstract and contact
information by September 24 to Joan Stahl, Moderator, at [log in to unmask]
