suspect nearly everyone has received this notice from another source, but I
want to bring to your attention the presentation files from the Bibliographic
Standards Committee-sponsored seminar on "Citing Bibliographies in Rare
Book Cataloging" which are included. Not audio, but slideshows, and in my
case, accompanying text. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

haven't heard it yet, but I suspect that archivists and catalogers will also be
interested in the seminar "Public Services and 'Un-Hidden' Collections:

<p class=MsoPlainText>Audio and presentation files from the 50th Annual
RBMS/ACRL Preconference, “Seas of Change: Navigating the Cultural and
Institutional Contexts of Special Collections” are now available!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>We are pleased to announce the publication of electronic
files from the 2009 Preconference of the Rare Books and Manuscripts Section of
the Association of College and Research Libraries. This year RBMS--with
generous assistance from OCLC Research--initiated an experiment in providing
digital audio files of programs at the Preconference in Charlottesville, VA.
Audio files of presentations include: the entire short papers program, New and
Emerging Voices; one of the seminars; most of the plenary speakers; and a
couple of speakers who gave special welcoming and historical remarks. Also
available are presentation files of some of the seminars, and PDF files of the
print Preconference program and the special 50th anniversary print publication
on the history of the Preconference. Additional presentation files may be added
later. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>This publication represents the result of on-going
efforts to provide expanded access to programs at the RBMS Preconference, and
we hope this experience will provide the information necessary for better and
further efforts at future events. If you have suggestions or notice instances
that may require further attention, please contact the 2009 Preconference
Program Chair, R. Arvid Nelsen, at nels0307@umn.edu. For ideas and suggestions
regarding improvement for the future, please contact the 2009-2010 RBMS Chair,
Deborah J. Leslie, at djleslie@folger.edu.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>We would like to thank all of the participants in the
2009 RBMS Preconference and the committee members and volunteers who put in
extra time to make this happen. We especially want to thank Arvid Nelsen, who
not only shepherded the project from beginning to end, but put in uncountable
hours to make these files from the RBMS/ACRL 50th Annual Preconference freely
available. <o:p></o:p></p>
