Symposium in NC: Preparing Stewards of Public Informaton in a Digital World
If you can make it to Chapel Hill in January, you might want to attend this symposium, co-sponsored by the UNC-Chapel Hill School of Government and the School of Information and Library Science (and the price is right–only $45). I know this has been posted on a number of lists, so apologies for the duplication:

The School of Information and Library Science (SILS) and School of Government (SOG) at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) will hold a day-long symposium called “Preparing Stewards of Public Information in a Digital World” on January 15, 2010 from 8-5 in the Warren Jake Wicker Classroom of Knapp-Sanders Building on the UNC-CH campus. The symposium will include panel discussions and other interactive sessions related to lessons and strategies for professional preparation to engage in public information stewardship.
The ESOPI-21 Symposium web page is available at: http://ils.unc.edu/esopi21/symposium10.html
.The themes of the day will include persistent issues in the stewardship of electronic records; the “policy game” – what it is and how to play it successfully; advancing professional values through IT policies and systems; and professional education – context and strategies of SILS and the SOG at UNC.
The symposium is part of Educating Stewards of Public Information in the 21st Century (ESOPI-21), which is a three-year collaboration between SILS and the SOG at UNC-CH, sponsored by the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
