Programme for LIMTI in Amsterdam 2009

Hello everybody!

I hope to see many of you at the IAML conference in Amsterdam next year (5 - 10 July 2009)! Maybe you are already interested in the programme for our branch?

Our branch has been invited to have a joint session with Public Libraries Branch by the chair Hanneke Kuiper, which I gladly accepted.

The second session will be "our own" and have the theme "The Music Librarian as a Pedagogical Resource". I am very happy that the following speakers have accepted my invitation:

* Steven K. Gerber; George Mason University USA
"Drive-By, Drop-In Musicology"

* Jane Gottlieb, The Juilliard School, New York USA
“Libraries and the Universe of Information About Music: Keeping Our Books, Preserving our Values.”

* Dorothea Baumann, Secretary General of the International Musicological Society
Bibliography and Internet - Teaching Search and Valuation Strategies".


Kind regards,
Pia Shekhter
PS: I write this with the reservation that the programme may change.

Dear Pia,

Congratulations on your blog and the program you have prepared for IAML 2009. There are actually some interesting parallels with what we are planning for the Bibliography Commission. Perhaps we could propose to the program committee that our sessions be scheduled back to back. It does not matter at all to me which would go first
