The Rural Initiative of the California State Library is pleased to announce
the availability of two webcasts on the Future of Libraries. These archives
come from a live event held September 23 by the Library Staff Development of
the Greater Bay Area. The workshop looked at significant issues and trends
impacting libraries in California, including the social landscape,
economics, and technology.

Speakers were leading library consultant Joan Frye Williams, OCLC Vice
President George Needham, and California State Librarian Susan Hildreth.

The California State Library's Rural Initiative is an LSTA funded project
that directs additional resources to the state's geographically isolated
public libraries. The Rural Initiative underwrote the videotaping and
archiving of the Future of Libraries program to make the content more
readily accessible to rural library staff, however the archiving benefits
all of us who couldn't be there. There is no charge to view the archives.
