Subject: Information forecasts ...
October 1996
According to this month's issue of WIRED Magazine,
"The field of grey literature ... has exploded
along with the Internet and electronic publishing."
GreyWorks'96, the Second U.S. Workshop on Grey Literature will
be held on November 18, 1996 in College Park, Maryland, USA.
The speakers will survey the emerging information landscape and
forecast the direction, course, and momentum of grey literature
in network environments.
In 1993, your organisation may have been represented at the First
U.S. Workshop on Grey Literature (FAW'93). This is a good reason
not to miss the Second Workshop entitled "Information Forecasts
and Grey Literature".
Register soon and please don't forget your compass /\
With kind regards
Dominic Farace,
Director GreyNet
