The Combined Regions announces roadshow dates for new Unity resource 
sharing and ILL service

The Combined Regions has announced a series of roadshows where librarians 
are invited to find out more about the new Unity resource sharing and 
interlibrary loan service.  The new generation of UnityWeb brings the 
previously separate union catalogues of The Combined Regions and LinkUK 
into one service. 

The roadshows start on Tuesday 14th March and run until Thursday 6th 
April, in all areas of the UK - from Taunton to Aberdeen.

For a full list of dates and venues and to book your place using the 
online booking service, visit the events page at The Combined Regions 
website at http://www.thecombinedregions.com/events.html 

The roadshows are free to attend and will cover:
* An introduction to the benefits of the new service 
* The opportunity to see the new service 
* An outline of timescales for the new service
* An explanation of how library authorities can take advantage of 
the new service.

Librarians can receive up-to-the-minute news, and discuss the new service 
with members of The Combined Regions' board, colleagues and the team at 
OCLC PICA by joining the TCR mailing list 
www.fdusa.com/fdsupport/mailman/listinfo/tcr.

For more information or to discuss the new service, contact Georgina 
Devane or Katie Anstock on [log in to unmask]

The new Unity service will be hosted and managed by OCLC PICA and FDI, 
world-leaders in resource sharing.
