FYI - this program by the Science and Technology Section of ACRL (ACRL-STS) might be interesting for serials librarians. Please feel free to pass it along to others who catalog or do other metadata work too. -lkm -------- Original Message -------- Subject: STS Program and Poster Session Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 16:40:55 -0400 From: Soehner, Catherine <csoehner@umich.edu> To: <lmcelfr@emory.edu> Hello Laura, I'm not sure you'll remember me, but we met at an STS function at one of the ALA meetings during this past year. We discussed the fact that STS and other sections of ACRL often do not talk to one another. STS is putting on a program that might be of some interest to folks who work with serials and metadata. If you're willing, I would greatly appreciate your sharing our e-mail advertisement (below) with any listserv that you think might be interested in attending the STS program and poster session. I hope all is well at Emory and I hope to see you at the STS program in Washington, DC! Sincerely, Catherine Soehner STS Chair, 2006-2007 csoehner@umich.edu <mailto:csoehner@umich.edu> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please mark your calendars and join us for this year's STS Program and Poster Session at the ALA Annual Conference in Washington, D.C. *Issues and Trends in Digital Repositories of Non-textual Information: Support for Research and Teaching* Monday, June 25, 2007 8:30am - 11:00am Washington Convention Center, Room 145B /Libraries have long been invaluable for preserving and organizing literature produced from scientific research. Librarians and researchers alike are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of also preserving the scientific community's prodigious output of data, which are often difficult, if not impossible, to find in published literature. This engaging and informative program will address the issues and trends of storing and providing access to the vast amount of non-textual information produced by scientific research./ _Speakers:_ Thomas Dowling, Assistant Director of Library Systems,Client/ Server Applications, OhioLINK D.
