The centerpiece of the program will be a reprise, in part, of the successful LAMA-sponsored program on EDI presented on Tuesday in Chicago in June 1995. This will be an excellent opportunity to learn about the practical aspects of implementing EDI and speak with some of the leaders in the field about this very important topic. Speakers will include Friedemann Weigel, Harrassowitz; Joan Griffith, Immediate Past Chair of SISAC; and Sandra Hurd, EBSCO. If you missed last summer's program or if you would like to hear some of the presentations on EDI again, please join us on Friday morning for a stimulating session on a topic of immediate interest.
