Research Forum

The School of Information Sciences invites you to hear Dr. Julie Todaro
speak on “21st Century Libraries” on February 20 from 12:00 – 1:00 pm
in the Lindsay Young Auditorium at John C. Hodges Library on the UT
campus. Dr. Todaro is the President of the Association of College and
Research Libraries (ACRL).

In her presentation, which will also be webcast,
Dr. Todaro will focus on today’s world where - whether we like it or
not – libraries exist in a "flat" and ever evolving "dog-year change"
environment where we strive to be cutting edge, struggle to avoid
bleeding edge, and position ourselves to be competitive while we
balance the traditional with the new. Please join us for this important
research forum.
