Subject: Hold the date: May 7th Journal Discovery Vendor Showcase
At the request of library deans/directors from the Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries, we have scheduled a product showcase on discovery systems which have an emphasis on journal literature. Some of you have had visits from some of these vendors but being able to see all of the major competitors in this area in one day will help in making an informed licensing decision. About two years ago we did another vendor showcase on the more general topic of next generation discovery systems with products such as Encore, AquaBrowser, Indigo (TLC) and others. This new program will feature new solutions that have arisen since that time or vendors which have made a concerted effort to bring in large quantities of journal article literature into their environment.
The location for the meeting has not yet been confirmed but the date is solid with all vendors agreeing to this date. If you are available and interested in this program please add this date to your calendar. Please contact Geri Virtue to register.
Sincerely,
George
As always - our apologies for cross posting on different listservs
