BCR to Attend Kansas, Montana
and Washington Library Conferences

BCR staff are planning to attend three state library conferences in April: the Kansas Library Tri-Conference and the Montana and Washington library association annual conferences.

The Kansas Library Tri-Conference, a joint conference of the Kansas Library Association (KLA), Kansas Association of School Librarians (KASL) and Kansas Association for Educational Communications and Technology (KAECT), is scheduled for April 4-6 in Topeka. Jim Hensinger, manager of Internet & Database Services (IDS), and Rosario Garza, manager of Bibliographic Systems & Services (BS&S), will represent BCR at the conference, including presenting the "BCR Network Update" set for 10:45 a.m. Friday, April 6. There you will hear the latest about OCLC, FirstSearch, SilverPlatter and other reference services including BCR's new Roth Publishing Web-based poetry databases; learn what's new on the Internet and World Wide Web; and find out what new hardware and software is of interest to libraries.

The Washington Library Association Annual Conference also is scheduled for April 4-6. BCR Executive Director Dave Brunell and Ellen Fox, manager of BCR's Research & Development (R&D), will join Washington librarians in Spokane. BCR's goal at WLA: to introduce Washington's librarians to the ways BCR can help them provide their patrons with affordable services.

Rosario Garza, manager of BCR's Bibliographic Systems & Services (BS&S), will travel to the Montana Library Association Annual Conference April 25-28 in Kalispell.

Stop by BCR's booth in the Exhibits Area at all three library conferences to talk with BCR's staff members. Ask any questions you might have and pick up information about BCR's services, including OCLC products and services, discounted subscriptions to a large variety of reference databases and electronic books, library-oriented workshops (both in the classroom and online), Internet services and microcomputer hardware and software at discounted prices.
