Thought LM_NETers might be interested in this (sorry about the length). Steven Hodas NASA K-12 Internet Project __________________________________________________________________________ | | | | hodas@nsipo.nasa.gov | These opinions are mine. I don't | | Sterling Software/NASA NREN | don't speak for NASA or Sterling | |___________________________________|_____________________________________| ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Librarians (and interested parties) - You've been hearing about the need for librarians to be involved in the development of the Information SuperHighway. You've probably been wondering how exactly you might do that. As a start, consider attending the 30th IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) meeting in Toronto next month. Now you might say to yourself, "Self, What would *I* do at an Engineering Task Force meeting? Wouldn't I be out of my depth?" My answer to that is a resounding "NO". The IETF is one of the key groups in development of the Internet. If you want a say in how things are developed, then you need to be at these meetings where many of the major players congregate three times a year. Librarians have important skills in organizaing and delivering information and are an important block in the Information Super Highway. The IETF needs to hear from this community in this forum. Note that the IETF is a working meeting and not a conference per se. Some of the working groups of interest are: User Documentation, Training Materials, Uniforn Resource Identifiers, Internet School Networking, and Integration of Internet Information Resources. I've included for your convenience the notice of the meeting. Please join us, and help make a difference.
