Amigos Library Services is pleased to bring you
this two-day workshop:

A Hands-On Introduction to XML

Date:
Wednesday and Thursday
March 19-20, 2003

Location:
Amigos Library Services, Inc.
Dallas, TX

Topics to be Covered Include:
* XML: What is it? How does it differ from SGML and HTML?
* The basics of reading Document Type Definitions (DTDs) and understanding
the reasons for using them when constructing and writing XML content.
* Implementing methods of content formatting and transformation (including
XSL and cascading style sheets) so the XML we build can be delivered,
read,
and used in a variety of formats.

Prerequisites:  Although this is an introductory
course aimed at the XML beginner, some familiarity
with the theory and practice of markup (HTML, SGML)
is expected, as are strong basic computing skills.
