The University of Tennessee School of Information Sciences Alumni Board
invites you to the SIS Alumni & Friends Day on March 7, 2009, 1 ­ 4 p.m. at
UT Hoskins Library Delivery Hall on the University of Tennessee campus.

This year¹s theme, ³The Records Professions,² explores the convergences and
divergences of archives and records management. This program will uncover
where these disciplines have traditionally differed, and yet how the
emergence of digital libraries is now bringing these two disciplines
together. What is Archives 2.0? Records Management 2.0? We have a gathered a
panel of experts to answer this question.

Come and join us in celebrating the life and work of Dr. Mike Pemberton who
will be retiring at the end of spring term 2009.  SIS students and faculty
members will sponsor a poster session during the afternoon reception.

WHAT: Alumni & Friends Day 2009
WHEN: March 7, 1 pm ­ 4 pm
WHERE: Location: UT Hoskins Library Delivery Hall
1401 Cumberland Avenue

RSVP to Linda Sherman at [log in to unmask] or (865) 974-7916.
