>See You See a Librarian is a time limited project whose purpose is to
>experiment with the CU-SeeMe technology for real-time information exchange
in the realm of library and information science. You are invited to read
more about this informal project from the following URL:

> http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/~emorgan/see-a-librarian/
>
>The project is divided into three distinct stages described below.
>
> Stage One - "Feasibility" (July 7 to July 31)
> The purpose of this stage is to learn how many librarians
> have the necessary hardware, software, and willingness to
> explore the use of the CU-SeeMe technology.
>
> Stage Two - "Librarians on Librarianship" (August 1 to August 31)
> The purpose of Stage Two is to limit the scope of discussion
> to library issues. It is intended to be a forum for the real
> time discussion of library issues like reference services,
> cataloging resources, collection management, or acquisitions.
>
> Stage Three - "Librarians Fostering Knowledge" (September 1 to
> September 30)
> The purpose of Stage Three is to open the discussion up to
> information seekers needing assistance. During this stage,
> people outside the library community will be encouraged to
> participate. It will be at this time when reference
> questions could be fielded, information organization
> issues could be addressed, or advice could be given on
> locating particular pieces of information.
>
>As always, feedback is encouraged.
