[PADG:1895] PARS DG at Midwinter (Philly '03)

[Tom Teper <tteper@xxxxxxxx>]

What: PARS DG
When: Sunday, January 26th at 4:30.
Where: Loews Commonwealth C 
Topics:
A. Publication
Ever wonder why there are so few preservation-related articles in
Library Resources & Technical Services? Well, so has John
Budd, Editor and Chair of LRTS. John will discuss issues about the
publication and its role within ALCTS as well as attempt to gather
information from us about why publications submitted in acquisitions,
collection management, preservation, and serials are so few and far
between. 
B. Ergonomics in Preservation and Conservation Workspaces
Shawn Tonner of Library Building & Renovation Management will be
leading a discussion about ergonomics in the workspace. Shawn is a
librarian by training and has worked as a library building consultant
(primarily in academic libraries) for the last seven years. Shawn says
that, "Like your members and all those involved in work place
redesign, I continue to struggle with the human factor and ergonomic
issues that seem to continue to plague us. For every fact, there seems to
be an equal and opposite truth." This forum will provide us with the
opportunity to discuss information about ergonomics with an individual
intimately involved in incorporating ergonomics within the workspace.

For questions or more information about PARS DG, please contact
co-chairs Ann Olszewski (Ann.Olszewski@xxxxxxx) or Tom Teper
