Grace Hudson, EDC librarian at Bradford University, is running a new EIA
course on Wednesday 17 June 1998 in Bradford, entitled "Electronic
sources of EU information".
The course gives an overview of the main electronic sources of EU
information including online databases, the Internet and CD-ROMs. And
there will be plenty of opportunities to try the products. As well as
the online databases and Internet, Grace has got permission from the
major CD-ROM providers to have their products available so participants
can try them for themselves.
The programme is as follows:
10.00 Welcome and introduction
10.15 The Internet explosion
Find out what EU information is on the Internet and what's useful.
11.00 Coffee
11.15 EU online sources
Learn what databases are on the market (both commercially produced and
issued by the EU institutions), what they cover and how to access them.
12.00 Hands-on session - exploring the Web
An opportunity to look at web sites and official databases.
12.45 Lunch
1.45 EU information on CD-ROM
Find out what CD ROMs are available, what they contain, their advantages
and disadvantages.

3.15 Tea
3.30 Hands-on session
