Acquisitions Process
When: Saturday, June 21, 2003

Our experienced panel of librarians will engage in lively discussion on the
topic of how the job of acquisitions has changed as a result of the increase

They will discuss their own experiences with big deal licensing, and what
the benefits and drawbacks of the big deal have been for librarians and
libraries.
