Call for Participation: Digital Library Technologies Interest Group (DLTIG) at ALA Midwinter 2008


Call for Participation: Digital Library Technologies Interest Group (DLTIG) at ALA Midwinter 2008

The Digital Library Technologies Interest Group (DLTIG) will meet in Philadelphia on Sunday, January 13, 2008 from 10:30AM to 1:00 PM. The meeting will provide discussion on the upcoming DLTIG annual meeting program in Anaheim, CA titled Institutional Repositories, Mass Digitization, and Preservation; a regular business meeting; and a Share Online Stuff (SOS) open forum for participants to demonstrate innovative projects and programs.

The SOS part of the meeting, will provide an open forum for participants to share short demonstrations (5/10 minutes) of innovative digital library projects and programs with attendees. In addition to sharing new digital initiatives, it is hoped this will spark discussion on program ideas for 2009 ALA annual conference in Chicago.

While an open forum, I?m asking LITA members who want to present at the DLTIG meeting in to send to me by email descriptions and titles of demonstrations. I would like to get a feel of the number of you who are willing to share the merits of your library staff?s digital services with other ALA members.
