*Please join us for the second annual NISO/BISG Forum: *“The Changing
Standards Landscape: Creative Solutions to Your Information Problems.”
The forum, a partnership between the National Information Standards
Organization (NISO) and the Book Industry Study Group, Inc. (BISG) will
immediately precede the American Library Association conference in
Anaheim, CA
The half-day event – to be held on Friday, June 27^th , from 12:30 pm -
4:00 pm in the Anaheim Convention Center, Room 304 A/B – will provide a
big-picture look at the development and impact of common solutions-based
standards for librarians and publishers. Explaining why standards are
important for your organization and how you can get involved, the
program will focus on the preparations under way to build standards for
tomorrow's digital supply chain.
NISO’s Managing Director, Todd Carpenter, and BISG’s Executive Director,
Michael Healy, will lead the forum through three main areas of standards
development:
-- Identify & Describe
-- Discover & Retrieve
-- Comply & Use
To discuss these ever-changing and growing areas of standardization will be
-- Brian Green, Executive Director, EDItEUR
-- Annie Callanan, President & CEO, Bowker
-- Tina Feick, Consultant and Co-Chair, NISO I2 (Institutional
Identifiers) Working Group
-- Clifford A. Lynch, Executive Director, Coalition for Networked
Information (CNI)
Additional speakers are being confirmed, and topics will include
identifiers for digital publications, authors, and institutions;
standards for delivering online book content and knowledge bases; and an
update on ACAP and ONIX-PL.
