Since the OBS RLIN Committee was on sabbatical this year and did not meet during the 2000 annual meeting, this report covers the RLG Law Roundtable meeting that took place in Philadelphia. Robin Dale, RLG program officer for law, facilitated the meeting. More information about these initiatives is available from RLG at . RLG is also working with OCLC on two joint projects on attributes of digital archives and metadata.
ILL manager is now a full-blown system available for purchase and installation.
RLG is getting some funding support for digitization as well as to support the human intervention necessary to adequately describe what is in digital resource files. Currently in the data collection stage, FLAG will not be a union list but a description of collections and will be used as a resource for research and for collection development. The resulting database, which will be limited strictly to print resources, will be available on the Web. Libraries reported on local issues ranging from plans for new buildings or renovations, digitization projects, and progress on reclassing portions of their collections. Some libraries requested an extended loan period for ILL transactions between law libraries.
