Dear colleagues,
We're planning the March issue of Catapult and are looking for your contributions!
The tentative theme is 'future-forward'- as inspired by Kevin Ford's recent visit and his talk on BIBFRAME.
(Reminder- the webcast is still available to view here: http://webcast.gigtv.com.au/Mediasite/Catalog/catalogs/lianza-catsig)
Do you have views on RDF, BIBFRAME, linked data, the future of the library catalogue and cataloguing, or examples of how your library is planning or has implemented new systems?
Also, on a broader tangent - if you've read something interesting, started a new role, attended a workshop or completed a cataloguing project and would like to share, we'd love to include it too. The deadline for contributions will be Friday 4th March.
Please get in touch with ideas to either/ both of us at:
Tamsyn Bayliss tbayliss(a)aucklandmuseum.com<mailto:tbayliss@aucklandmuseum.com>
Jessie Moir jessiem(a)hdc.govt.nz<mailto:jessiem@hdc.govt.nz>
Many thanks,
Tamsyn and Jessie

Morning all, I thought this one might be of interest. It's a reasonable price, but also remember that generally these ALCTS webinars are made freely available later.
Cheers!
