Draft Agenda
Bibliographic Roadmap Meeting
Baltimore, MD USA
April 15-16, 2013
NISO will host a two-day “unconference” to brainstorm and explore topics that will be a core component of the overall roadmap that NISO is working with the library, higher education, and non-profit networked information community to formulate. The goal of this meeting is to engage participants in an open conversation about the future of our collective bibliographic exchange ecosystem.
The expected outcomes of this meeting will be:
- Identify and prioritize topics for further exploration
- Identify gaps in our collective understanding of the future
- Provide a forum for sharing data exchange efforts and in turn, expose them to a broader international community
- Organize next steps to advance understanding of these issues
Because this is an unconference, the exact timing and priorities will be set by attendees. This is a guide of the two days’ activities.
We will try to engage virtual participants as much as possible during the meeting via WebEx or Google Hangout, as well as provide a video stream of as much of the in-person discussions and presentations as is feasible.
