    Online Resource Discovery and Use - Humbul Humanities Hub
    http://www.humbul.ac.uk/summerseminar.html

    University of Oxford, Friday, 19 July
    9:30am - 5:00pm

    Part of the OUCS Summer Seminars 2002.

    The Humbul Humanities Hub finds and describes online resources for
    teaching and research in humanities subjects. This one-day seminar will
    introduce participants to the discovery, evaluation and cataloguing of
    online resources, making use of Humbul's cataloguing systems. Humbul's
    catalogue, however, is not merely a static repository of descriptions and
    metadata. It is also an active tool for use in teaching and learning.
    Participants will be introduced to the 'My Humbul' set of services and
    shown how to select sets of records within Humbul, provide personalised
    annotations, and re-use these sets within their own Web pages.

    Humbul, based at Oxford University, is part of the Resource Discovery
    Network, which is dedicated to discovering, cataloguing and providing easy
    access to quality online resources for higher and further education in the
    UK.

    Format:
    The seminar will comprise a mixture of formal presentations and practical
    sessions. Teaching will be carried out by Humbul staff and the seminar
    will take place at Oxford University Computing Services, 13 Banbury Road,
    Oxford

    Who should attend:
    This seminar will be of use to humanities researchers, teachers and
    librarians and academic support staff.

    Booking:
    The workshop costs 65 pounds or 35 pounds for students.

    Below is an interesting call for papers by the ERIC Clearinghouse on Information & Technology for a monograph on K-12 Digital Libraries that will demonstrate lessons learned so far in developing educational digital library collections and services in a variety of disciplines for K-12 educators and students.
