Invitation to institutions
We are inviting libraries, information agencies, professional organizations, and service providers to consider participation at LIDA by providing a demonstration, workshop, or exhibit about their advances, or by presenting a paper or poster about their activities. Sponsorship of an event is also invited. Institutions can benefit as well: We will provide course materials and virtual tutorials on LIDA website to participants so that they can communicate, instruct, and transfer topics of interest to their institution. Thus, we are organizing LIDA to reach a wider audience.
