SCELC Attending Charleston Conference
James Wiser and Rick Burke will be attending the Charleston Conference on behalf of SCELC. SCELC will be prominent in the conference program, participating in three different presentations. Rick will be presenting on “Negotiation” at the Serials Preconference, and moderating a panel entitled “Who’s in the Middle? Library Consortia, Subscription Agents and Book Distributors”. James will be part of panel entitled “It’s the Economy, Stupid: Dealing with High Acquisition Goals in Low Economic Times”.
Because of its informal nature, the Charleston Conference is also one of our best opportunities to meet with vendors and discuss issues with both publishers and librarians in a collegial atmosphere.
James and Rick will not be the only SCELC presence at the conference, either. A number of SCELC Member Libraries will also be represented, including: Claremont University Consortium, Getty Research Institute, Loyola Marymount University, and University of Southern California. If you or someone from your library is attending, let us know and be sure to say hello!
