Serials Resource Management in Corporate Workplaces: An Introduction
A one-day seminar for those involved in the day-to-day evolving world of
journals and serials
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thursday 17 November 2005
Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, London
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Designed particularly for staff who are new to working in this area, whether
as a publisher, an intermediary or an information professional, this seminar
may also be of interest to those looking to consolidate and update their
information knowledge. The UKSG is able to call on the extensive experience
of its members in sourcing expert speakers from the various sectors of the
information industry to present a practical overview of all aspects of
journals and serials management.
The emphasis is on developing a sound basic understanding of the details of
serials handling in order to promote efficient and informed working
practices. A wide range of day-to-day issues will be covered, with time
devoted to recognising and resolving the problems that can arise at the
boundaries between publishers, intermediaries and libraries.
