Subject:  Funding Our Digital Future: Budgeting for Libraries & 
Scholarly Communication

Binghamton University Libraries' presents Funding Our Digital Future: 
Budgeting for Libraries & Scholarly Communication on March 20-21, 2006 
at Binghamton University's campus.

The purpose of the symposium will be:

          o To explore the challenges of library resource allocation in
            the digital age
          o To create a flexible resource allocation process to respond
            to changing research and curricular needs of faculty and
            students, to address the increasing interdisciplinary nature
            of teaching and research, and to involve the university
            community in an ongoing dialogue with the University
            Libraries in this process.
          o To address the broad issues of the changing nature of
            scholarship in the digital age; both the production of
            scholarly information and the communication of scholarship
            within the academic community (e.g. the open-access
            initiative and its funding model implications for libraries
            and universities) and how these impact the challenges facing
            libraries in collection resource management and the
            strategies used to address these challenges.

There is no registration fee.
