> Title: Informed on the Issues: Sharing Perspectives on Public Policy
>         Monday, March 29, 1999, 4:00 - 6:00

> Sponsor(s): Public Policy Committee & International Relations Committee
> Moderator: Katherine Poole, MIT, Rotch Visual Collections
>
> Program Description:
> National and international debate on current public policy issues
> and legislation are continually reflected in the changing environment of
> today's libraries. Advances in digital technologies and the universality of
> the Internet have spurred recent efforts to update or create new
> legislation.  Actions and decisions on a range of critical issues, such
> as copyright and intellectual property rights; intellectual freedom,
> including censorship, privacy and confidentiality, have the potential
> to profoundly affect art librarianship.
>         Understanding our shared and varied political realities is vital to
> our preparedness to actively pursue the future as we envision it. This
> jointly sponsored session offers an opportunity to review significant
> public policy issues and legislation in Australia, Canada, and the U.S.,
> focusing on the importance for art libraries and visual resource collections.
