Call for presentations: Open Source Applications

 

LACASIS, the Los Angeles Chapter of the American Society for Information
Science and Technology, is planning a workshop in March-April, 2005 on
interesting open source applications. Do you have an information
science/library-related project based on open source tools? We are looking
for creative applications having to do with the analysis, storage,
management, retrieval and/or dissemination of information in useful ways. We
would like to emphasize local projects. Please feel free to forward this
message to interested parties.

 

If you have a presentation idea, please contact:

About ASIS&T

 

Since 1937, the American Society for Information Science and Technology

(ASIS&T) has been the society for information professionals leading the
search for new and better theories, techniques, and technologies to improve
access to information. 

 

ASIS&T brings together diverse streams of knowledge, focusing what might be
disparate approaches into novel solutions to common problems. ASIS&T bridges
the gaps not only between disciplines but also between the research that
drives and the practices that sustain new developments. 

 

ASIS&T counts among its  membership some 4,000 information specialists from
such fields as computer science, linguistics, management, librarianship,
engineering, law, medicine, chemistry, and education; individuals who share
a common interest in improving the ways society stores, retrieves, analyzes,
manages, archives and disseminates information, coming together for mutual
benefit. 

 

About LACASIS

 

ASIST's Southern California chapter began life in 1961, when it was
chartered as the Los Angeles Chapter of the American Documentation
Institute.
