CFP - Innovative Users Group (IUG) 2005

Conference Name: Innovative Users Group (IUG)
Conference Date: May 1-4, 2005
Conference Location: San Francisco, California
Deadline: November 5, 2004

NOTE: Follow the link below for the full list of topics. This is the description information.

This is a list of topics that YOU told us you would like to hear about at the next Innovative Users Group Meeting (May 1-4, 2005, San Franciso, CA). We need volunteers to give these presentations. Don't be shy - you know more than you think you do! If you don't want to go it alone, think about participating in a panel discussion or coordinating a program and finding other presenters. You are certainly not limited to topics on this list, but this is a good place if you’re looking for ideas.

Program Tips:
Both novice and advanced user levels are needed:
-Overview of a module or a function for beginners (including experienced users starting to use the module or function)
-Real-life examples from libraries using the module/functionality
-Programs that delve with more depth into one smaller area or function

Include both public and academic libraries as much as possible on panels

Users like "nuts and bolts", "this is how to do it", "what it can do for you" and "we had this problem and here is what we did about it" programs

All submitted programs will be reviewed by the Committee before being accepted. We are working with a finite number of program.
