Library Technology Now

Library Technology Now, a one-stop resource for library technology news and product reviews written by library people for library people, needs your help!

Located at www.librarytechnologynow.org, the site will include product reviews that will outline features and functionality of library technology products. The reviews will also summarize the reviewers' own personal experiences with the products.

In addition to the reviews, library technology news will be gathered from around the world and disseminated on a daily basis. The site's target launch date is April 2005.

We are seeking volunteers for the following positions:
Editors: approve the content of reviews before they are published
Copy Editors: proofread the reviews before they are published
Thesaurus Team Members: create the Library Technology Now indexing terms
Researchers: assist with locating news sources and third-party reviews
Web Designers: design the look and feel and build backend applications

If you are interested in volunteering, please email webproducers@librarytechnologynow.org for more information. Library Technology Now is funded by The North Texas Regional Library System, Inc., and the Automation and Technology Round Table of the Texas Library Association.
