2009 SLA All Sciences Online Poster Session now underway

The 2009 SLA All Sciences Online Poster Session is now underway and will run from October 15 -29. The web conference features many of the posters originally presented at the SLA Annual Meeting, June 2009 at the All Sciences Poster Session and Reception in Washington, D.C. Division sponsors of the online event, as with the physical session, are: Biomedical & Life Sciences; Chemistry; Engineering; Food, Agriculture & Nutrition; Physics, Astronomy, Mathematics; Science-Technology.

A total of 14 posters are being offered under the two major themes which are

Theme I: Scientific Information Workflow: Librarian Perspectives, Best Practices, and Models in the Digital Era
and
Theme II: Innovations and Best Practices in Biomedical and Life Sciences Libraries

Details of the schedule, along with access to the discussion forums and the presentations themselves can be found at the location link below.

If you did not get to see these posters in Washington, D.C., or comment, ask questions, or exchange ideas with the presenters at the time, now’s your chance. Come peruse the poster selections and participate in the discussions which will take place in an asynchronous format, thereby freeing you from time constraints. But there is one inescapable time limit, and that is October 29, so don’t wait too late to participate.

Location: http://forum.lib.lsu.edu/slachem/
Registration: free (registration is necessary to post questions and comments, but not to view the presentations –we do hope you will choose to engage in the discussions, however)
