-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Librarians sought for CSIG 2009 Date: Thu, 21 May 2009 10:03:23 -0400 From: C.C. Miller <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] With apologies for cross-posting, please note this announcement for CSIG 2009. This is a great summer program for librarians interested in data, cyberinfrastructure, collaborative librarianship, and late developments in the way your faculty are (or will be) engaging their data universe. I highly recommend it and I know for a fact they're particularly interested in courting librarians for this. Chris M. ============= GEON is pleased to announce the 6^th Cyberinfrastructure Summer Institute for Geoscientists (CSIG) to be held August 10-14, 2009 at the San Diego Supercomputer Center on the University of California, San Diego campus. General and program information, as well as online registration is available at: http://www.geongrid.org/csig09. CSIG‘09 will expose participants to emergent Geoinformatics approaches to 3D and 4D integration of geoscience data. Given the diverse interests of past CSIG participants, and the feedback that they provided, this year’s program will feature two “tracks” of instruction: 1. “Build”: Overview of the technologies utilized to develop earth science cyberinfrastructure. 2. “Education”: Utilization of cyberinfrastructure-based data systems and tools for earth science education and research. Interested applicants at all levels are encouraged to apply, including graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and professionals in earth science and related disciplines. Course registration and accommodations are paid for with support received from the National Science Foundation (http://www.nsf.gov <http://www.nsf.gov/>). Selected participants will be responsible for funding their own travel to San Diego for the Institute. *The Registration Deadline for the CSIG ’09 is June 7^th . Registration can be found at *http://www.geongrid.org/csig09.** Please forward this information to anyone that may be interested in this year’s CSIG.
