[Sigcr-l] Words: an invitation

[Shawne Miksa]

I would also like to join Kathryn and thank everyone who help put the workshop together. I enjoyed very much the conversations and the papers presented.  It seems would should also add "taxonomy" to that list--in every sessions I attended over the last few days that was the one word that always came up. 

I want to restate my intention to digitize some of the older and/or out-of-print works that were mentioned several times at the workshop.  I've made a (very) preliminary list, some of which are just the names of the authors themselves, and am including it below.  If anyone has suggestions for other titles or authors please let me know.  I plan to seek some funding, if possible, and approach the Texas Center for Digital Knowledge (TxCDK) here at SLIS/UNT about using the digital lab to begin the scanning.  Here is the list:

 
Dorking Conference 1957
Elsinore Conference 1964
Faceted Classification—Vickery
Berwick-Sayers
Bliss
Ranganathan
Richardson
Dewey?
D.J. Foskett
E. Coates
Fairthorne
Farradane 
Mills’ Modern Outline for Library Classification
Pollard, Bradford
Taube?
CRG minutes
Any CRSG minutes

Again, this is very preliminary--just me brainstorming on the flight home. Edie Rasmussen expressed interest in using this for a class project.  
Please give me your thoughts and suggestions. 
most sincerely,
S.
