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

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