[Asis-l] January deadline for ASIST collaborative book, Intro to IS&T

[Debora Shaw]

Contribute before January 10, when the then-existing version of the wiki 
will be used as the basis for the printed textbook.

Calling all ASIST members - help create *Introduction to Information 
Science and Technology*, an introductory textbook for our field. IIST is 
being written collaboratively by ASIS&T members, edited by Ralf Shaw and
Chuck Davis.

More than 70 members have contributed to the wiki that houses the first
draft of this unique collaborative work. A new textbook based on the IIST
wiki will be published by Information Today, Inc. on behalf of ASIST.
The wiki will live on as a dynamic resource, featuring in-depth
presentations that enhance and supplement the printed text.

As an ASIST member, we invite you to join us in helping to prepare the
next generation. To contribute go to:
