We will meet from 10-2 (we go out to lunch together from approximately 12-1). We are discussing several programs. One program will be on doing social sciences research using Government Publications (that will be our pre-conference at CARL Annual). A second program will cover effective and efficient searching of Census data (that will be next Spring). We are also discussing the possibility of a joint program with GIPIG North on tools and strategies for developing California Documents collections. We will also discuss our web page (not up yet, but coming soon), and other ways to carry out our educational / informational mission.
