2001: A SPATIAL EXPERIENCE
CoFHE Annual Study Conference

 <<...OLE_Obj...>> 
University of Nottingham, Jubilee Campus

9th - 12th April 2001

This conference takes a space-age look at academic libraries at the
frontiers of the Millennium on three separate, themed days.  Does your outer
(physical) space accommodate the 21st century?  How do we fill and use web
space?  And does your personal space need thinking about?   The conference
venue reflects the space-age feel - Jubilee Campus is Nottingham's new
state-of-the-art campus described as a "triumph of contemporary design"
opened in 1999.
