Networked Information Resources for Teaching and Learning.
9th April 1998 - University of Abertay, Dundee.
In response to the results from the TALiSMAN training needs analysis of
academic staff from the Scottish Higher Education Community, this event has
been organised to look at Networked Information Resources.
We will start by examining Information Gateways and will see how these can
be used to identify quality information resources on the World-Wide Web.
Following this some existing Information Resources and Datasets will be
presented and some of the developments that are happening in Scotland and
the UK showcased.
The day will be concluded with workshop sessions where you will be able to
experience Information Gateways for yourself. As an alternative, Abertay
University has extended an invitation to all delegates at this event to
experience their brand new library building, opened in February 1998.
