*****************************************************************

OBJECTIVES:

The Technical Services Workstation is a technology which brings all
the tools for cataloging together online. The Library of Congress
has stressed development of this technology as a means of
increasing cataloging output and creating more cataloging in less
time with fewer dollars. Grassroots development work in TSWs is
beginning to develop momentum and new infrastructure developments
such as McGill's telnet packages and the upcoming releases of OCLC
and RLIN under Windows make integrating various off-the-shelf
software packages increasingly feasible.

Participants will see demonstrations of programs currently in use
and the revolution in macro-based cataloging which these programs
have initiated.
Faculty will also present issues of management in relation to
implementation and how and why workflow is affected.

AUDIENCE:

ALCTS and regional networks are sponsoring this institute for
catalogers, managers and administrators planning to develop TSWs

FACULTY:

- Michael Kaplan, Harvard University
- Janet McCue, Cornell University
- Matthew Beacom, Yale University
- Bruce Johnson, Library of Congress,
- Mark Bendig, Office of Research, OCLC
