Subject: Presentations "Maplibrarianship in transition"
 
 
----
To my personal homepage <http://www.konbib.nl/persons/jan-smits/homepage.htm>
have been added some presentations in PowerPoint under the chapters:
 
"Metadata for digital spatial data"
     Developments in spatial data management: Dutch impressions (185Kb),
     click on "Klik hier om te starten" or Power Point presentation.
     Presentation for the 35th Annual Symposium of The British Cartographic
     Society and the Map Curator's Group Workshop, University of Keele, 
     United Kingdom, September 10, 1998.
 
"Transition in Mapcuratorship"
    The Necessity and Nuissance of Survival or How to keep to our senses (200 Kb)
    Power Point presentation.
     Presentation for the 11th conference of the Groupe des Cartothécaires de LIBER,
     Kraków, Poland, September 16, 1998.
 
Together with the paper under the chapter:
"Metadata for digital spatial data"
     The creation and integration of metadata in spatial data collections.
 
(of which an updated version will be published in the Andrew/Larsgaard issue of
 Cataloguing & Classification Quarterly) they form my current impressions concerning
 the transition of maplibrarianship.
 
Though some of the PowerPoint slides may need an explanation I hope that the whole is
 self-explanatory enough to make sense to you.
Most of the slides are animated and some (as "transition in technology") do not make
sense when the animation-possibilities are not used. So, keep pressing 
the enter-button!
