NETSL CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT

 

Registration is now open for the New England Technical Services
Librarians' 2008 Spring Conference:

 

Cohabiting and Colliding: Print and Electronic Resources

Friday, April 4, 2008

College of the Holy Cross, Worcester, MA

 

The increasing presence of digital resources and new modes of access are
driving changes in technical services-changes in standards, in workflow,
organizational structure, and staff allocation. Please join us to
examine some the implications of these changes and some strategies for
adaptation as technical services departments face the management
challenges posed by this ongoing shift.
