At the GTRIC Meeting at the 2008 SLA Annual Meeting in Seattle 
http://wiki.sla.org/display/SLATRAN/SLA+2008+Annual+Conference
Bonnie Osif did a presentation on "Transportation Libraries - A Guide to the 
Players." I don't think it included everything David is seeking, but she had a 
diagram and I believe it included some of the pieces. I could ask her for a 
copy if you'd like.    (01)

Leni Oman suggested/requested that the TKNs do a poster for the upcoming TRB 
LIST Committee poster session. The following is the submitted poster proposal. 
It seems to me that this poster could very well present the information David 
listed.     (02)


TRB LIST Committee Call for Posters Proposal, 9/29/2010      
Search, discovery, and current awareness information                                (03)


Title: Developing a Transportation Knowledge Network    (04)

Abstract: 
We spend a lot of time looking for information.  As budgets and workforce 
shrink, we need to develop strategies that minimize this effort.  In 2006, a 
Transportation Research Board policy study published the report Transportation 
Knowledge Networks: A Management Strategy for the 21st Century and recommended 
the development of Transportation Knowledge Networks.  Three TKNS have evolved: 
Midwest Transportation Knowledge Network; Eastern Transportation Knowledge 
Network and Western Transportation Knowledge Network.  The knowledge network 
provides a framework that multiple organizations can use to support search, 
discovery, and current awareness.  The poster will include: 
*       A description and building blocks of the Transportation Knowledge 
Network 
*       Existing Transportation Knowledge Networks, products and activities
*       What you can do to help develop the Transportation Knowledge Network
*       An opportunity to provide your information resource and/or suggestions 
for priority information needs.    (06)

Thanks, Sandy.  I agree that this document is a good intro to ETKN, for anyone, 
but I'm thinking of a document for members once they join that explains the 
network of groups/initiatives related to ETKN and the scope of each, plus an 
explanation of some of the tools we're using.      (08)

Here is a promotional flyer that Ken Winter did a while back - a little out of 
date now though...    (013)

A follow up question for everyone:  has a presentation or schematic been 
developed that shows the relationships between...    (017)

Regional TKN's
National TKN (& current projects, per RITA website) TLR SLA Pooled-fund Study 
RITA AASHTO-RAC TKN Task Force NCHRP studies
Tools:  TRIS, OCLC, WorldCat, NTL, TRT, One Search, etc. etc.    (018)

Maybe a 1-2 page intro document for ETKN members could be developed with a 
glossary explaining all of these different groups/initiatives and how they're 
related.  Guess I could volunteer myself to develop it, but you might not see 
it for a while :).    (019)

Hi,    (025)

Attached is the brochure by Ron Curb that was mentioned in today's ETKN  
meeting.  This brochure is a great marketing tool for transportation libraries, 
especially  to upper management.    (026)
