LTLS to Host Symposium on the Future of Integrated Library Systems
Lincoln Trail Libraries System is pleased to announce a premiere conference, The Symposium on the Future of Integrated Library Systems. Join us September 13-15, 2007 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Champaign, IL for an opportunity to listen, learn, and talk to nationally-recognized speakers discussing the challenges and changes within the Integrated Library System landscape. Discover the changes that are happening now and why these changes impact how we must plan for the future.
Speakers will include: Marshall Breeding, Director for Innovative Technologies and Research, Vanderbilt University; Karen Schneider, author of Free Range Librarian; Carl Grant, President of CARE Affiliates and previous executive at various ILS companies; Chip Nilges, OCLC Vice President for New Services; representatives from Georgia Pines Open Source (Evergreen) ILS project; Kate Sheehan, Library Thing for Libraries; and others.
