and many practical ideas for what can be accomplished in our libraries
and information services. Join us at Computers in Libraries 2002
and hear from experts, practitioners, and strategists — all from the information

digital content; systems tools and techniques, Web design and development;
collaborative digital reference; usability testing; e-learning and literacy,
and of course, lots and lots more.
