[Baynet] Mini-conference in SF on 9/26 on innovative library services--reg istration now open!

[Hersh, Daniel]

Registration has now opened for:

The Future of Libraries, Part III: Embracing the Invisible Customer 
September 26, 2007, all day 
San Francisco Public Library, Koret Auditorium (Main Library)

$40 registration fee 

Sponsored by the Library Staff Development Committee of the Greater Bay Area

					
The library's mission is shifting. For years we have served those who came
into the library by having materials inside the library, but now we are
reaching out to virtual customers using a variety of formats and methods of
delivery. Who are these new customers? How can we serve them? How do we
account for them to ourselves and our funders?
