> You are invited to attend the 2008 OCLC Western Digital Forum 
> OCLC Western is pleased to present the fourth annual OCLC Western
> Digital Forum <http://www.oclc.org/western/digitalforum/default.htm>
> on August 14-15, 2008, in Tacoma, Washington, at the Hotel Murano
> <http://www.hotelmuranotacoma.com/> . This year's forum will focus on
> Making Digitization Count: Assessment and Evaluation Practices. The
> forum will feature national experts from the archival, museum and
> library communities who will discuss current projects to create and
> automate evaluation and assessment tasks for digital collections.
> Three of these distinguished presenters include:
> 
> * Kate Haley Goldman (Keynote speaker), Senior Research Associate at
> the Institute for Learning Innovation, Annapolis MD
> * Elizabeth Yakel, Assistant Professor, University of Michigan School
> of Information 
> * Dr. Helen R. Tibbo, Professor, School of Information and Library
> Science, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
> The program will also explore how evaluation and assessment methods
> inform decision making for digital collections. Presentations will
> highlight national projects of significance relating to evaluation and
> assessment of digital collection users, 21st century learners and
> model practices for digital program assessment.
> The forum is designed to offer a smaller and more intimate meeting
> setting where participants can share knowledge and create networks
> with other organizations that are working to develop assessment and
> evaluation practices. It is an ideal educational opportunity for
> librarians, archivists and museum staff who are charged with creating
> digital access to collections. 
> So please make your plans now to join your colleagues at this
> prestigious national event. For more information about the 2008 OCLC
> Western Digital Forum and to register, please visit our Web page
