The Future Is Now: What Libraries Need in 2010 and Beyond - February 2, 2010 - Washington, DC. "In a proven formula, a panel of librarians will take questions from moderators and participants on a range of themes during a full day of discussions, including:
* What are librarians looking for from resource providers and publishers in this brave new world?
* How are librarians transitioning to digital collections?
Increasingly, libraries are developing robust digital publishing programs, investing in institutional repositories, weeding print, and looking to build e-book collections. Couple this with a decade of open access initiatives, shrinking embargo periods on scientific literature, Google Books, and the rise of virtual services for patrons who never set foot in a physical library, and it looks like the future is now" - Society for Scholarly Publishing
