digital documents? Jeff Rothenberg presents an overview, as first
discussed in his January 1995 Scientific American article,
including a long term solution based on emulation.--LMD, ITE

Librarian's Role in the High Technology Workplace

In today's increasingly fast-paced, high-technology
world, the information professional's job function is ever changing.
Project deadlines are becoming shorter, while the number of data
sources are constantly increasing, causing data gathering,
competitive intelligence, and strategic planning professionals as
well as senior management to function in a " time compression "
environment. That business atmosphere may not allow information
professionals sufficient time to develop internal and external
networking relationships, may cause overlaps with other
organizations in obtaining data, and may cause key client groups to
rely on their resource centers (information professionals) for
quickly filtered information before making their decisions. This
session will identify these issues and make recommendations to
resolve them while improving internal communications and
interactions with other organizations. --ITE, ERMD
