Change is here today and cutting-edge practicing librarians from throughout the country are here to talk about what they’re doing in their libraries.

Topics include XSLT, linked data, cataloging e-books, and acquiring and managing datasets. Each presenter will provide an overview of their innovation geared toward allowing you to assess potential application in your library along with practical information on how to get started. Two special concurrent sessions (limited seating*) will include a discussion lead by Laura Smart, Metadata Services Manager, Caltech Libraries, on new initiatives in technical services and how to make time, and a detailed look at an XSLT project from start-to-finish with Lucas Mak, Michigan State University Libraries.

Presenters will also include Tiffany Wilson, UMBC, as well as Jane Murray and Christine Black, Federal Reserve Library. For the full schedule and program description, see the TSD website at: http://www.mdlib.org/divisions/tsd/events.asp. Program includes box lunches.
