Invitation: Free Information Sessions on OCLC Institute "Steering by Standards" Videoconferences

[Lytle,Amy]

Dear Colleague:

Library systems and practices rely upon a growing array of technical
standards designed to support all aspects of knowledge management. 

Often, new standards combine both imaginative thinking and technological
innovation to produce new solutions for information managers and users.
Understanding, influencing, planning for, and exploiting standards has never
been more important--or more challenging--for libraries.

The OCLC Institute is presenting "Steering by Standards," a series of three
satellite videoconferences that will address key topics in the standards
arena (http://www.oclc.org/institute/events/sbs.htm).

For more information about "Steering by Standards," register for one of the
