Alyce, representing the State Library, and Jennifer, representing UIUC are both on the planning committee. They are also representing CARLI and will keep this group informed of the proposals progress.
3. New business
- Possible joint forum on digital preservation with Digital Collections User Group.
The Digital Collections User Group (Matt Cook, Chair, UIC) has requested a joint forum with our working group for Spring 2009.
Lynne will attend the NEDCC workshop in December. The group might consider how this might be scaled down for smaller and poorer schools.
Elizabeth mentioned SOLINET’s workshops. They charge $100 for webinars and $200 for in-person workshops. A workshop in digital stewardship will be held in November.
The group decided that these should be added to the webliography under training.
