About Library Connect Events

Organized by Elsevier Account Development Managers and Customer Marketing teams, Library Connect events bring together Elsevier colleagues and customers to discuss issues of concern for information professionals. Librarians play an active role in planning agendas for and giving presentations at Library Connect  events, where frank discussion and sharing of ideas and experiences ensure participants get the most out of attending. Elsevier’s Library Connect events program began in 2002. Since then approximately 6,000 librarians have attended events held across the world.

Correction

Regrettably, the Library Connect Newsletter, 3(4), published in October 2005, contained an error appearing on pages 12 and 13. The name of Ms. Whui-chun Tsui, Librarian at the National Taipei University of Technology in Taiwan, was incorrectly spelled. Sincere apologies go to Ms. Whui-chun Tsui
