Serials Pricing Issues.  Please forgive the duplication.
------------

The Serials Industry Systems Advisory Committee (SISAC) will take
most of its program time at the ALA annual meeting for a
discussion of MACHINE-READABLE TABLES OF CONTENTS.

     - Book Industry Communications in the U.K. has provided a
     model of a scannable Table of Contents using new and
     exciting "2 dimensional" bar code technology.

     - Publishers have announced the availability of Table of
     Contents over the Internet via ftp.

     - ILS vendors are asking what librarians want to do with
     this information?  Must it be "hooked to holdings?"

Join us and let us know what you think.

DATE:  Saturday, June 26, 1993

TIME:  8 - 10 p.m.

PLACE: Ponchatrain Ballroom, Section A
       Sheraton Hotel
       New Orleans, LA
