Finding Consensus on File Sharing: Legal, Producer, and Consumer Perspectives on the P2P Phenomenon

Graves, University Librarian, Trinity University, will discuss P2P file-sharing issues as they affect and play out in higher education today.

Preconference Seminars and Track Sessions

At the center of the conference are practical "how to" sessions that will emphasize ways to save time, effort, and money while maintaining important services and without burning out talented staff. Join us for preconference seminars on the morning of February 25 and the full conference program February 25–27. The sessions follow four key tracks:

  • Leadership and Development (Budget and Funding Emphasis)
  • Teaching, Learning, and Support
  • Technology and Solutions
  • Corporate Presentations

Enjoy the weekend before or after the conference in Dallas and nearby Fort Worth-you'll find plenty to see and do. Both cities offer a range of cultural and entertainment options, including the famous Galleria shopping complex, museums, fine dining, historical sites, and sports venues.
