*NISO Forum: The Future of Library Resource Discovery* NISO will host a two–day meeting to take place in *Baltimore, Maryland on October 5 & 6, 2015* on *The Future of Library Discovery* <http://www.niso.org/news/events/2015/October_discovery/>. In February 2015, NISO published a white paper commissioned from library consultant Marshall Breeding by NISO's Discovery to Delivery Topic Committee. The in-person meeting will be an extension of the white paper with a series of presenters and panels offering an overview of the current resource discovery environment. Attendees will then participate in several conversations that will examine possibilities regarding how these technologies, methodologies, and products might be able to adapt to changes in the evolving information landscape in scholarly communications and to take advantage of new technologies, metadata models, or linking environments to better accomplish the needs of libraries to provide access to resources. *Confirmed speakers include:* - *Opening Keynote:* *Marshall Breeding*, Independent Library Consultant, www.librarytechnology.org - *Scott Bernier*, Senior Vice President, Marketing, EBSCO - *Michael Levine-Clark*, Professor / Associate Dean for Scholarly Communication and Collections Services, University of Denver Libraries - *Gregg Gordon, *President & CEO, Social Sciences Research Network (SSRN) - *Neil Grindley*, Head of Resource Discovery, Jisc - *Karen Resch McKeown*, Director, Product Discovery, Usage and Analytics, Gale | Cengage Learning - *Jason S.
