With the world of information and information-sharing in constant flux, how do librarians keep abreast of trends in library resources, technologies, and services? And, are the trends in academic libraries, equally meaningful for museum and public libraries? Session panel members–all ARLIS NA trendsetters–will highlight what’s “in” and what’s “out,” with an eye on resource-sharing, software, and Web 2.0 tools. They will describe initiatives with which they are involved and discuss how they relate to art libraries, more generally.
THE POSTER SESSIONS:
- Introducing New Technologies through Collaboration
- The Library as Experience; Interactive Components in an Architecture Library
- University of Minnesota Digital Content Library: Collaborating and Sharing Across Disciplines for the Common Good
- Virtual Voice: The Art Library Blog
- Web2.0 for Color Theory
- Targeted Instruction: A Staffing Solution for Coaching New Digital Image Users
- Next Generation OPACS: Current Practices & Future Opportunities for Art Libraries

For those that did or did not attend the What’s Hot & What’s Not session, Adina Lerner did a great presentation on what is Cloud Computing and how it impacts all of us. If you want to know more, an easy to read article was just published by Tom Zillner, tzillner@wils.wisc.edu, at WiLS (Wisconsin Library Service). You can read the article, at: http://www.wils.wisc.edu/tzillner/articles/cloud_computing.pdf
I thought it was pertinent and timely for everyone.
