Announcement: Continuing Resources Costs in Libraries Interest 
Group at ALA Annual

The ALCTS CRS Costs in Libraries Interest Group invites you to attend:
Pricing Book and Journal Backlist Content as an Electronic Resource

Sunday, June 29, 4:00-5:30 pm
Anaheim Convention Center, Room 221 A

As electronic resources are becoming the format of choice in many 
libraries, publishers are retrodigitizing older content 
previously available only in print. Publishers will share their 
approaches and concerns, while a librarian will represent the 
library's perspective of needs in models for providing and 
pricing backlist content.

* Rick Anderson, Assoc. Dir. for Scholarly Resources & 
Collections, University of Utah, Marriott Library
* Adam Chesler, Assistant Director, Library Relations and 
Customer Service, American Chemical Society
* Heather Ruland Staines, Global eProduct Manager SpringerLink

We will leave time at the end for an update from Judy Luther, 
President, Informed Strategies, on SERU (A Shared Electronic 
Resource Understanding), published as part of NISO's Recommended 
Practice series.

Please join us for a lively discussion!

For more information, please contact Clint Chamberlain (chair; 
c.chamberlain@austin.utexas.edu) or Kim Steinle (vice chair; 
ksteinle@dukeupress.edu) of the Continuing Resources Costs in 
Libraries Interest Group.
