Subject: Call for Facilitators/Recorders: ALCTS Creative Ideas in              Technical Services Discussion Group

                ** CALL FOR FACILITATORS & RECORDERS **

The ALCTS Creative Ideas in Technical Services Discussion Group seeks
volunteers to either facilitate roundtable discussions or serve as
recorders for each roundtable.  Here is an opportunity for ALA Annual
Conference attendees to be involved in an official capacity in an
energetic and stimulating discussion forum on timely and relevant issues,
and with a minimal time commitment.  Ideas and insights will be exchanged
on the four topics listed below.  Facilitators will keep the discussion
relevant and will be provided with "seed" questions to pose if the group
needs focus.  Recorders will take notes on the major discussion threads
and will submit the notes to the co-chairs at the end of the discussion
hour.

If you are interested in participating as either a facilitator or a
recorder, and you are available on Sunday, June 28, 1998, 4:15-5:45,
please reply at your earliest opportunity to either co-chair listed
below.  Your assignment will be confirmed prior to the conference, and
detailed guidelines and information about the discussion group will be
provided to you in advance.  The topics for the Annual conference are:

        1. Coping with personnel issues resulting from reorganization

        2. Electronic journals: acquisition, organization, access

        3. Migrating to a new system

        4. Continuing education and training for all technical services
            staff

We invite you to take an active role in creative exploration of the
issues.
