If you can't make it to the Digital Library Federation Fall Forum 2009 in
Long Beach, we wanted to let you know that the first day of the forum will
also be available in Second Life. You are invited to attend the DLF Fall
Forum 2009 on the DLF's island, Entropia, in Second Life (SL). 

Details of the schedule are available at
http://www.diglib.org/forums/fall2009/2009fallschedule.htm. Just remember
that only the first day of the Forum, Wednesday, November 11th, 9:00 am to
5:30 pm SLT (PST) will be available in Second Life. The second day will
consist only of face-to-face small group brainstorming in Long Beach,
California, on topics presented on the first day.

Moderators will host the November 11th program, with presentations
transcribed into text chat, to supplement the audio and video feeds. SL
participants can interact with other SL participants and pose questions and
comments to the speakers through SL text chat. If you are not already a part
of Second Life, basic accounts are free from http://secondlife.com/.

We know travel budgets are tight, so we hope that this makes the DLF Fall
Forum more accessible to some of you.

The Second Life audience will be limited to 50 people.

Please RSVP to obtain the SLURL (Second Life URL), as well as instructions
on how to view the video and adjust the audio in SL:
http://www.diglib.org/forums/fall2009/secondlife.htm   Only people from DLF
member institutions will be allowed to attend, so please include your
institutional affiliation.
 
Hope to see you there!
