Dear followers,
As you know, LTR keeps its information monitoring on Library and Information Sciences, History of Books and History of Libraries, with the tools DIIGO.
For helping you to understand our purpose with Diigo, and for helping us to use it well, we made a charter diigo for LTR, inspired from the Diigo Charter of the workgroup Legotheque (French Librarian Association).
You can read this charter in French or in English and if you want to participate to our information monitoring, don’t hesitate to contact us at section.IFLA.LTR@gmail.com or at @IFLA_LTR
The last issue of our newsletter is now available : Newsletter n°6 : June 2014.
Feel free to contact us for more information on LTR’s activities at : section.IFLA.LTR@gmail.com
Dear followers,
today we are writing a quite different article, because we wanted to introduce you to the people behind this blog, the twitter and our diigo accounts.
Our team is composed of enssib students involved in the IFLA LTR workshop. This workshop was created in 2011 by Raphaëlle Bats, information coordinator for the LTR section. This is the third consecutive year that students have the opportunity to discover how an organization such as the IFLA works.
As part of the workshop, we meet once a month to have a review on the LTR news and to work on our respective tasks. We’re all dealing with the information monitoring
on LIS and on Libraries and books history in order to supply our diigo accounts. We communicate our monitoring via twitter (@IFLA_LTR) and this blog. Our monitoring is primarily for researchers in the fields mentioned above, to inform them on the latest resources, upcoming conferences, call for papers, etc …
Here is a small presentation of each team member. Some of us will be at the IFLA 2014 Congress in Lyon this summer. If you plan to be part of the event, don’t hesitate to come by and say hello.
