ANNOUNCEMENT FOR SERIALISTS AND EDUCATORS

Please join fellow serialists and educators for a "Serials
Education Town Meeting" at ALA Midwinter, sponsored by the
Serials Section Education Committee of ALA/ALCTS.  An open
forum is planned to discuss the question:  "What are our
serials education needs today?"  We seek your participation
as serialists and educators on Saturday, January 20, 9:30-
11:30 AM, at the Marriott Rivercenter, Conference Room 10.
The Serials Section Education Committee furthers education
efforts in the area of serials librarianship from library
school instruction and practices to all types of continuing
education.  It identifies needs and makes recommendations
for the content of such educational opportunities and seeks
to establish liaison between the committee and other bodies
having similar interests.

For further information, contact Bea McKay, Chair, at:

PROGRAM - "Implications of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)"

           Friday, January 19th, 9:30 am - 12:30 pm
           Marriott Rivercenter, Conference Room 2

SISAC will sponsor an educational program on EDI at ALA Midwinter.  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.
