All-
Here are those minutes again.
Crossing fingers that they get through this time!
But perhaps you’d like to see previous minutes or

Colleagues-
It
was great to be able to participate in today’s ETKN conference call,
something I’ve not been able to do much recently due to a standing
conflict with the scheduled time and many pressing demands.
I
thought it might be a good idea for me to provide you with some information
about “LIST” the TRB committee I chair, and which Sandy Brady, Lynn Matis
and others of you have been involved in, both as friends and as members.
LIST stands for “Library and Information Science for
Transportation.” The committee is 12 years old and I believe it has
greatly elevated the status of transportation libraries at TRB and within the
research sector.
Here’s
our scope: This committee serves as a forum for transportation librarians and
the transportation research community on developments in information science
and their applicability to transportation. The committee facilitates diffusion
of national library and information science innovations throughout the
transportation community by monitoring the use of new resources and tools in
the transportation arena, defining critical research and training issues
relating to their implementation, and promoting the benefits of these
capabilities.
You
can find more complete information here: http://www.trb.org/CommitteeandPanels/OnlineDirectory.aspx#DetailsType=Committee&ID=2082
More
on getting involved with Standing Committees is here: http://www.trb.org/GetInvolvedwithTRB/Public/GetInvolvedCommittees.aspx
including this member’s guide which goes into detail: http://onlinepubs.trb.org/onlinepubs/dva/memberguide.pdf
I’m
attaching the minutes from our last meeting, at the TRB Annual meeting in
January as well. There was great energy in that room and I was really
excited by the brainstorming that went on.
I
expect we will have a conference call in March and if any of you are interested
in sitting in as “lurkers” please get in touch with me.
Thanks.
Ken
