is now available.
Now in its eighth

Organized by

to Monterey,
Calif., its powerful
conference program
packed with leading-edge
ideas, tools,
expert speakers,
practical tips,
and exciting
new events. As
the only conference
designed for
information professionals
who are using,
developing, and
embracing Net-
and Web-based
strategies in
their roles as
information searchers,
guides, Webmasters
and Web managers,
content evaluators
and organizers,
and product developers,
IL is one you
can't afford
to miss.
Over the course
of 3 days, attendees
will have the
chance to network
and learn as
the keynote speakers
and session leaders
explore the most
pressing issues
in the industry.
With four different
track options,
each day will
explore topics
such as the following:
•
Information & Knowledge
Exchange—The
exchange of
information
and knowledge
is at the core
of what Internet
librarians
do. These sessions
explore new
ways
and technologies
for streamlining
this activity
and creating
new products
and services.
•
Web Systems & Operations—Learn
how to harness
the latest
technologies,
what to watch
out for, and
get the information
on what's really
worth the hype
in today's
increasingly
Webbed world.
•
Collaboration
Tools & Techniques—Working
together, building
communities,
and fostering
collaborations
are key productivity
trends today.
These sessions
focus on the
different technologies
and ways of
efficiently
collaborating
and exchanging
information.
•
Content Management:
Open Access Forum—Get
involved and

this hot topic
of debate. Following
on the heels
of the Open Access
Forum in London,
and including

what "open
access" has
to do with
Internet librarians.
