I've been asked to post some updated info about Internet Librarian International.
Here's some info today from InfoToday:
Transcending Boundaries:
Information Technologies & Strategies for the 21st Century
10-11 October 2005 • Copthorne Tara Hotel, LondonOnly 5 weeks remaining to arrange your visit. More info on the Registration page.
This year’s conference programme showcases innovative information environments and ideas that will help you update your skills and energise your thinking about how to find, organise, and manage information resources. Create a personalised conference agenda by choosing among sessions, tracks, and topics including:
- Blogs, Wikis and Collaboration Tools
- Global Best Practices
- Digital Libraries
- Exploring Web Research Skills and Resources
- Innovative Information Environments
- Technology for Libraries
- National Digital Projects and Initiatives
For my previous postings on this conference you can check my ILI2005 category.
I have mostly been working on the unofficial conference wiki/blog at
http://ili2005.xwiki.com/
I encourage everyone to contribute. Currently you don't even have to be a registered user to add content. I have put in some new features that I hope will be useful:
- If you will be blogging about the conference add your blog or (preferably) ILI2005 category/tag RSS feed to an aggregation page that will display the combined results
- Photos posted to Flickr with tag ILI2005 will show up on the built-in Flickr Photos page
- In case anything slips through the cracks, I have also set up a page that aggregates blog search results for "internet librarian international" or ili2005. It uses Feedster, Blogdigger (which now has feed ads) and PubSub. It's not perfect due to spammers :( but it does catch a fair number of postings.
I can't take much credit for the advanced features; Ludovic Dubost and his team at XWiki have been a big help getting them set up.
