HigherEd BlogCon

I'm going to have a paper presented in the online conference HigherEdBlogCon.

HigherEdBlogCon 2006

The paper is about raising the visibility of the library by leveraging talent in organization and metadata. The library and information services part is supposed to run April 10-14, 2006. I volunteered to do chat as well, but I don't know if that'll happen or not.
