Similar survey has been done for national libraries and archives. Now we are looking for "industry" community to complete it. Industry means all dealing with long-term preservation of digital objects like HW, SW developers and companies, media, system integrators ... etc. The questionnaire is available online http://www.digitalpreservationeurope.eu/preservation-issues-survey/. National Library of the Czech Republic is one of the partners of the European Digital Preservation Europe project. DigitalPreservationEurope (DPE) fosters collaboration and synergies between many existing national initiatives across the European Research Area. DPE addresses the need to improve coordination, cooperation and consistency in current activities to secure effective preservation of digital materials. You will find more information at the website of the project: http://www.digitalpreservationeurope.eu/ We would like to disseminate results that will be really useful for all the target groups. This is impossible without having feedback from them. Please, be so kind and fill in the online survey no later than 20th of October 2007. In any case you can contact me: Jan Hutar National Library of the Czech Republic Klementinum 190 110 00 Prague 1 Czech Republic e-mail: jan.hutar at nkp.cz Thank you and your staff for your time Bohdana Stoklasova; Jan Hutar & DPE team From rhill at asis.org Mon Oct 15 12:20:13 2007 From: rhill at asis.org (Richard Hill) Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2007 12:20:13 -0400 Subject: [Sigmed-l] REMINDER - Donate to Silent Auction to Benefit InfoShare! Message-ID: <419-2200710115162013212@RHILL-IBM> **** Please excuse cross postings **** Hello colleagues, Before you leave town, remember to pack your contributions for the SIG-III Silent Auction this year. Each year at the ASIST Annual Meeting the International Information Issues SIG holds an International Reception and Silent Auction. Donations from ASIST members are bid on by other members to raise money to sponsor memberships for colleagues in countries for whom the membership fee presents a financial hardship. Donations in the past have included items from the personal households/libraries of members (jewelry, books, etc.), offerings of services (weekend at vacation home, etc.), and items created by members themselves (paintings, knitted items, wine from member vineyards, etc.). So get creative or clear out your attic. No item is too small or too trivial. A large portion of the InfoShare funds are raised from items auctioned for less than $5.00! When it doubt, bring it along! If you plan to bring your items to Annual Meeting, please give them to Caryn Anderson or Kate Johnson or any SIG-III officer. If you would like to mail it, please coordinate with Caryn directly (vika.kravchyna at arius3d.com). ** Special Uganda Books Project ** If you own books specifically related to Library and Information Sciences, please consider donating them to the SIG-III campaign (new this year) to provide materials to LIS programs and colleagues in Uganda. Please contact Vika for more information about the LIS books for Uganda project (vika.kravchyna at arius3d.com). Thanks for thinking of the InfoShare Award and we'll see you soon!

SO, we're going to start meeting at 9:45 am in the Gilpatrick B room on the first floor, and then at 10:15, we're adjourn to attend the Health-related session in the Executive CD room on the second floor. Because this session has only two presenters, we'll have time to finish our planning meeting in the same room as the Health panel!! :-) See you tomorrow.... slm -- Steven L.
