On 11 October 1999, a check was presented to Secretary of Cultural Resources, Betty Ray McCain, and from her office to Governor James B. Hunt, to establish the Floyd Relief Fund for Eastern North Carolina. I mentioned in my letter to Governor Hunt on your behalf that this would be a continuing fund since the problems of rebuilding lives and libraries will not be over soon. Please continue to send your contributions to NCLA and note Floyd Relief Fund in the lower left-hand corner of your check. You may FAX your registration if you'll be using a credit card. The Colloquium focuses on alternatives to the traditional modes of scholarly journal publishing.
All sessions are free and open to any interested colleagues.
Free parking is available during the event. This workshop immediately follows the Ninth North Carolina Serials Conference, sponsored by the School of Library and Information Science of North Carolina Central University on March 16 and 17th, also held at the Friday Center. The trainers are Frieda Rosenberg of UNC-Chapel Hill and Tom Ray of the Library of Virginia. This workshop is particularly directed toward new serials catalogers or general catalogers working with various formats without specialized training for handling serials. Instruction on both print and electronic serials cataloging will be included.
