The Serials Standards Update Forum is an annual presentation covering
current serials standards and the status of standards development in key
areas of library and publisher related work.  The forum's focus is on
standards that affect library serials management.  This year we invite
you to hear about the latest progress on three National Information
Standards Organization (NISO) initiatives that are of particular
interest to online serial formats:
