Cross-posted; apologies for duplication. ********************************************* Hello friends, The March 2010 issue of /Information Technology and Libraries/ (ITAL), LITA's peer-reviewed quarterly journal, is online and accessible to all LITA members. Issues older than six months are open to all. ITAL's main page is at <http://www.lita.org/ala/mgrps/divs/lita/ital/italinformation.cfm>. ITALica <http://ital-ica.blogspot.com/>, the weblog discussion area for ITAL, has been updated with information about the latest issue. ITALica features supplementary materials not included with the regular print and electronic versions of /Information Technology and Libraries/, such as "letters to the editor", updates to articles, and other materials we can't work into the journal. One of the most important features of ITALica is a forum for readers' conversations with our authors, wherein authors host and monitor discussion for a period of time after publication of their articles, so that you then have a chance to interact with them. ITALica offers you the opportunity to discuss with the following ITAL authors their papers in the latest issue: "A Partnership for Creating Successful Partnerships" / Carl Grant "Editorial Board Thoughts: Issue Introduction to Student Essays" / Sandra Shores "Monitoring Network and Service Availability with Open-Source Software" / T. Michael Silver "Tending a Wild Garden: Library Web Design for Persons with Disabilities" / R. Todd Vandenbark "The Path toward Global Interoperability in Cataloging" / Ilana Tolkoff "Tagging: An Organization Scheme for the Internet" / Marijke A. Visser "Dublin Core, DSpace, and a Brief Analysis of Three University Repositories" / Mary Kurtz "Geographic Information Systems: Tools for Displaying In-Library Use Data" / Lauren H. Mandel No membership is required to view or participate in ITALica. We hope to see you there! -- Andy Boze Web site Manager, ITAL, for the Editorial Board
