Ruth Wolfish, IEEE Client Services Manager, is organizing the first UK
area IEEE User Group meeting on Friday, November 16, 2007, at London
South Bank University at 103, Borough Road, London, SE1 0AA.
Our customers and interested information professionals will spend a day
with IEEE staff hearing about new features for 2008 - offering
suggestions on new developments prior to implementation, and networking
with other IEEE users. These meetings have taken place in North America
in Michigan, N. Carolina, Ontario, California, Florida, Illinois, New
Jersey and Maryland. Attendees overwhelmingly liked having a voice in
the future of IEEE Xplore, and networking with other IEEE customers. As
a global organization, IEEE is committed to involving customers in
Europe, Asia and Latin America as well. Your organization has been
selected to participate in this important IEEE UK user group.
Plan to spend a full day with us (9:30 am to 4:30 pm), continental
breakfast and lunch will be provided. This is free of charge as IEEE
appreciates your input and spending the full day with us.

A sample comment from the Jan 30, 2006 IEEE regional user group at the
University of California: Irvine:
"Thanks to you and the IEEE staff who made the trip to Irvine yesterday
I think it was marvelous day and a great mix of folks - so glad to have
met the corporate librarians - they added so many interesting ideas. I
hope you found it interesting and again, I confirm that IEEE runs the
best user & focus groups. It is rewarding to see previous ideas
implemented in the products and see things happen relatively quickly."
