TOPIC: SERU (Shared E-Resources Understanding)

SERU (Shared E-Resources Understanding), a NISO recommended practice
designed to help relieve both librarians and publishers of
labor-intensive license negotiations, is seeing adoption by a growing
number of libraries, publishers, and consortia. This program will
provide attendees with an understanding of the history, development, and
application of SERU, and will demonstrate situations in which the
adoption of SERU could serve as an alternative to license agreements.
The 2nd part of the program will be NISO updates from Todd Carpenter,
Managing Director, National Information Standards Organization (NISO).
We are also calling for volunteers to serve as Chair-Elect for 2009/2010
and then as Chair for 2010/2011. Please send your nomination or
self-nomination to jengj_at_acm.org.
