Video of PICS conference available via ILL

[Karen G. Schneider]

"Content Selection, PICS and the Internet," a videotape of the 6/27/97
conference co-sponsored by ALA-OIF, OCLC Office of Research and the World
Wide Web Consortium, is now available via Interlibrary Loan, according to
the September/October OCLC Newsletter.  The OCLC control # is 37609333.
"Borrowed tapes may be duplicated for use by the borrowing organization."

This was a very interesting preconference that offered our profession a
first look at PICS, the technical platform informing Web rating schemes, as
well as a tentative foray into discussions of Internet filtering.  I had
been hoping for an audiotape--this is even better!

Getting the popcorn ready...
