Subject: Workshop Annoucement (Ohio)
We're trying to get the word out about an upcoming workshop. Because of
the topic and the budget cuts, we're seeing some interest in the
acquisitions community-- if this can get posted as an AcqFlash, the
Collection Management Interest Group would be very grateful.

WORKSHOP TOPIC: The Cult of Collection Development: Access and
Assessment of Collections
DATE: Thursday May 30 9:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.
THE TOPIC: In an increasingly fast-paced and electronic library
environment, collection management sometimes seems almost a thing of the
past. Join us for a program that addresses some key issues on the
contemporary Ohio academic library scene. Everyday we make decisions on
what resources to add (or, worse, to eliminate) but how do we avoid
using quick-and-dirty facts to make those decisions? Cooperative
collection development is far along in Ohio--can it go any further?
Storage depositories are the dark side of our information explosion age
library collections--they do not seem to satisfy all our patrons. Can we
make them more popular? Update yourself on some timely issues!
Sponsored by the Collection Magagement Interest Group of the Academic
Library Association of Ohio.
LOCATION: Westerville Public Library 126 South State Street. Westerville
is located on Insterstate 270 in the northern suburbs of Columbus.
