>Videoconference, to be held on April 16, 1998 from 12:00 noon - 1:30 p.m.

>partnership between AALL and West Group and is part of AALL's continuing

>regional, and local levels.

>The Information Age is creating a work revolution for librarians--work
>evolves, new work is created, and other work disappears.  Technology
>contributes to this revolution in many ways; chiefly, it accelerates the
>pace of change, creating anxiety and a wish for things to stay the same.
>The goal of the videoconference is to provide participants with an
>increased understanding of the change process and to provide some practical
>information about managing, coping with, and embracing change.
>
>Participants will learn to define the organizational and technological
>issues of the change process and to identify management tools and
>techniques necessary for the planning, coordination, implementation and
>assessment of a successful change process.  Participants will also learn
>the advantages of being pro-active as a change agent within their
>organizations and how to locate resources to assist in managing a change
>process.
>
>The teleconference speakers are James L. Hoover,  Associate Dean for
>Library & Computer Services, Columbia University Law School Library;
>Florence Mason, Adjunct Professor of Library and Information Sciences,
>University of North Texas, School of Library and Information Sciences; and
