Art libraries and the book
trade today: an evening introducing Book Industry Communication (BIC)
ARLIS Cataloguing and Classification Committee invite you to an informal early
evening meeting with Peter Kilborn of Book Industry Communication (BIC).
Sponsored by the leading professional bodies in publishing, bookselling and
librarianship, BIC exists to promote standards in bibliographic data used and
provided by the book trade and its customers. Clearly they have a lot in common
with those responsible for cataloguing and documentation within libraries, and
there is scope for more conversations between us at all levels.
Here is your opportunity to find out more about the current trade developments
that can promote efficiency and enhance resource discovery and management in
libraries: EDI, ONIX, RFID, new roles for subject classification, the e4Books
and E4libraries accreditation that enables you to select the best providers.
Who should come: Librarians responsible for acquisitions, cataloguing,
stock circulation and collections management of art materials, in any kind of
library.
Where/when: Chelsea College of Art and Design, Old College Library, 5.30
to 7.30 p.m. on Wednesday 20th May 2009.
How much: Free, but pre-registration required, and there is a maximum of
30 places, so please let us know if you change your mind.
Other attractions: Drinks provided.
