SIG-DL Survey on Digital Libraries/Institutional Repositories Now Open!

Our SIG-DL Workshop is now a little more than a month away (October 12th,
2011)! In preparation for this highly participatory workshop, we are
soliciting your opinion on the accomplishments and challenges of digital
libraries and institutional repositories for discussion there. Even if you
can't join us for the workshop, we would very much to have your thoughts to
share in the discussion!

The link to participate in this anonymous survey is as follows:

And please do considering joining us in New Orleans to share your thoughts
in person at:

SIG Digital Libraries: A Builders’ Dozen
ASIST 2011 Post Conference Workshop
Sponsored by SIG Digital Libraries <http://www.asis.org/SIG/sigdl/>

Please join us for an afternoon of interactive discussion, and maybe just a
little reminiscing, focused on past and current digital initiatives,
directions for research and evaluation, and perspectives from leaders in the
field!

This highly participatory workshop builds on the past dozen years of SIG-DL
efforts and looks forward to the next dozen years. Three participants from
previous SIG-DL-sponsored panels representing some of the most significant
developments in the current “built” environment of digital collection
projects will discuss their views of the most important “building blocks”
for successful projects. Three participants from digital collection projects
either proposed or now under development will discuss their views of the
most important “building blocks” necessary to create “to-be-built”
environments of the future.

When: Wednesday, October 12, 2011 at 1:30-5:30
Where: ASIST post conference workshop. Room to be announced later
Why: To participate in discussions about research, development, and pedagogy

Keynote speakers include:

· Dr. Gary Marchionini, Dean and Cary C. Boshamer Distinguished Professor,
School of Information and Library Science, University of North Carolina
· Dr. Edward Fox, Professor and Director of the Center for Human-Computer
Interaction, Department of Computer Science, Virginia Tech University

To attend this interactive workshop, please register by adding the cost of
the post conference to your ASIST registration when you register for the
