The Council on Library and Information Resources Workshop Print E-mail
The Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) is hosting a three-day workshop for library and information technology administrators who need in-depth information about the planning, purchase, implementation, and management of digital assets. The workshop, "Managing Digital Assets," will focus on the  latest trends in digital-content management and on how small and midsize academic libraries can incorporate new approaches into their operations. 
 
The conference will be held February 4-6, 2005 in Charleston, South Carolina. PASCAL, the Partnership Among South Carolina Academic Libraries, with the assistance of funding from the South Carolina State Library, is pleased to announce twenty awards for South Carolina academic and public libraries, archives, and museums to send representatives to the CLIR conference. The awards are part of the 2004 LSTA grant received to assist PASCAL~Rs efforts in the South Carolina Digital Library Initiative. Fifteen awards will provide registration for conference participants from South Carolina and five awards will provide registration and hotel for participants from South Carolina.

Interested institutions should send a letter of interest to the address below no later than December 3, 2004. Please also include answers to the following questions. What digital assets does your institution have? What plans are in place for building or maintaining digital assets? What benefits do you see for your institution from participation at the conference? Are you willing to consider sharing your digital assets with PASCAL and South Carolina?
