ALCTS Pre-Order and Pre-Catalog Searching Discussion Group Topic: Into the Phone Booth!: Re-visioning for the (rest of the) 21st Century Speakers: perhaps you Time: Monday, June 25, 1:30-3:30pm Place: Washington Convention Center, Room 155 In Seattle, this group devoted part of its time to discussing something "crazy," but timely: widening its scope and...undergoing a name change. Join us for a continuation of the discussion to assess new directions for the future and refine the fledgling proposal to emerge as the "Library Materials Workflow Discussion Group" or something similar. Midwinter attendees affirmed the group's emphasis on the coordination between technical services and other library functions such as collection development as well as a desire to maintain the number of active discussion groups within ALCTS offering a forum for acquisitions issues. We invite you to participate in the group's reinvention process.
