Technology Division, University of California, Davis
The Davis Community Network is a three-year project which is being conducted by the University of California, Davis, as part of a series of statewide "smart communities" research projects sponsored by the California State Department of Transportation. A "smart community" is one which has made a conscious effort to employ information technology to transform a major portion of their region in a positive way, and which promotes cooperation between government, industry and education in doing so. The Davis Community Network project team has developed a model for evaluating, explaining, and planning for technology implementation that results in fundamental transformation, rather than incremental change. The project manager will present a briefing on the project and the model which has evolved out of it.

Keith Purdy, President, Direct Image
An international group of pioneering resource developers-based on such archives as Einstein, Edison, Galileo, Darwin, Goedel, Wittgenstein, Chaucer, Voltaire, Blake, Yeats, and Beowulf (together with academic computer center staff, library and museum professionals, publishers, and digital industry representatives) has established a non-profit corporation called ACCORD (Academic Community for Coordinating On-line Resource Development) to begin constructing the network communication facilities required to maintain a testbed community of such projects. Our experience of trying to coordinate ourselves by means of electronic mail discussion list, file servers, and the World Wide Web (http://accord.iupui.edu/accord/accord.html) encourages us to explore advanced network communication technologies that are just now becoming possible on the Internet. We are convinced that digitized archives need to be created as cultural resources and provided as foundational material for further development by publishers for more general use and by independent developers for more specific purposes. Digital technology industries have much to gain by supporting resource creation work which will lead to great demand for software and hardware instruments as more participants become involved in further resource production and customizing.

Douglas E. Van Houweling, Vice Provost for Information Technology and
Dean for Academic Outreach, University of Michigan
The University of Michigan has recently launched a new institution-wide program to make the University's resources available to those who are not in Ann Arbor and/or primarily focused on a degree program. The Academic Outreach Program will facilitate and promote activities ranging from distance independent education to remote access to the University's libraries. It will serve individuals, businesses, and government, and will emphasize long term relationships. The Program will build on the strength of the University's existing units and will be leveraged by the use of the information environment. We will present the early plans for the Program moderate a discussion about programs of this type which are increasingly a part of today's higher education environment.

Paul Evan Peters, Executive Director, Coalition for Networked
Information
David Young Peyton, Consultant, Economic Strategy Institute
Both Houses of Congress have passed omnibus telecommunications reform legislation (as H.R. 1555 and S.652), and a joint Senate-House conference committee is now taking up these two bills. Both bills contain provisions - albeit very different ones - for dealing with on-line obscenity and with violence on broadcast television. Content rating systems are being debated in a number of industry forums. Commercial broadcaster oppose these systems. Even so, the bills currently before Congress mandate hardware filters keyed to them. These hardware filters would offer limited user choice, and are controversial for other reasons. A high degree of user choice is offered by a variety of software filters that are already available. This project briefing will cover these and related matters, and will formulate priorities and strategies for the Coalition's involvement in technical and public policy deliberations in this general area.

Charles R. McClure, Distinguished Professor, School of Information
Studies, Syracuse University
Cynthia L. Lopata, Assistant Professor, School of Information Studies, Syracuse University
As more academic institutions spend larger sums of money to network their campuses and provide network connections to sources outside their campuses, questions concerning the selection and configuration of appropriate network technologies, and the appropriate types and levels of services to provide, are emerging. Increasingly, academic administrators are asking questions about the benefits and impacts of networking. This briefing reports on a study in progress designed to address these and other questions related to assessing network technologies and services at academic institutions. The purpose of this study is to develop performance measures and indicators of the impacts of networking on the academic institution. Key components of the academic networked environment will be defined and performance measures of networked information technologies and services at academic institutions will be developed and operationalized. This briefing provides an overview of the study's progress to date, identifies and discusses key issues and preliminary findings that affect successful evaluation of networked services and the development of performance measures, and describes an academic networked environment performance measures manual that is currently under development.

Mellon Foundation. A description of the project, its goals, technical
infrastructure, advisory committee, and rationale will be provided.
- Two Ravens Institute. A summer institute associated with the AALN for
scholars to explore the convergence of literate and oral cultures instigated by
networked information in the late 20th century. The Institute has three main
points of focus: (1) the long standing relationship of myth, folklore, and
fairie stories with emerging technologies; (2) the specific attributes of oral
and literate cultures and the manifestation of their convergence with the rise
of networked information; and, (3) the propensity of children to define their
world and themselves through unique narratives, and how the networked culture
may facilitate this propensity, particularly in the K-12 area.
- National Initiative for a Networked Cultural Heritage (NINCH). Update
on the activities and planning for NINCH; executive director; establishment
of an office in Washington, D.C.
- to produce a white paper on the value-chain of productive relations and
activities that link authors and readers in the scholarly and scientific
communication and publication system;
- to identify the value centers and cost categories that will experience the
greatest impacts due to the increased significance of networks and networked
information in the scholarly and scientific communication and publication
system; and
- to formulate strategies for measuring those impacts over time.
-
A breakfast buffet will be offered and attendees may choose to join a
Birds-of-a-Feather (BOF) table to discuss an issue or hot topic.

Andrew Michael Cohill, Director, Blacksburg Electronic Village, Virginia
Polytechnic Institute and State University
The Blacksburg Electronic Village was initially perceived as a technology experiment, but it has turned out quite differently. In reality, it has been a social re-engineering project facilitated by a massive, community-wide education effort. Every problem encountered so far has been one that can be solved by education: more education, better education, different kinds of education. As other communities and organizations become "connected," this tension between education and technology has broad implications for how we wire our communities, our schools, and our lives. This discussion will include a brief description of the evolution of the project and some of the lessons learned.

Betty G. Bengtson, Director of University Libraries, University of
Washington
Geri Bunker, Head, Library Systems Operations and UWired Librarian, University of Washington
Bernice Laden, Coordinator, UWired Project, University of Washington
Jill McKinstry, Networked Information Librarian, University of Washington
Oren Sreebny, Assistant Director, Computing & Communications, University of Washington
Anne Zald, Geography and UWired Librarian, University of Washington
In 1994, the University Libraries, Undergraduate Education, Computing & Communications, and University Extension at the University of Washington (UW) began collaborating on UWired, a campus-wide initiative on teaching and technology. The primary goal of UWired is to create an electronic community in which communication, collaboration, and information technologies become ongoing, integral parts of teaching and learning. During UWired's first year, 65 undergraduates and selected faculty were targeted for intensive technology instruction and use, and were loaned portable computers for the academic year. Librarians taught a year-long information and technology seminar which provided sustained, discipline-specific instruction about electronic information and served as a prototype for integrating information technology throughout the curriculum. A new kind of classroom, called the UWired Collaboratory, was designed to facilitate electronic learning communities and was built in the undergraduate library. During UWired's second year, technology instruction is being integrated into all 60 freshmen interest groups reaching 1500 students. Intercollegiate Athletics is supporting the full UWired participation of the men's and women's basketball teams. A fully-equipped Collaboratory II has been built and the UWired Laboratory for Teaching, Learning, and Technology, which includes a faculty development lab, is in design phase. This project briefing will describe the implementation, evaluation, and assessment of the UWired programs and provide transferable models for other institutions.

Participants in this session will receive an overview of the contents of the draft report and have an opportunity to make comments, criticisms and suggestions that will influence the final report of the Task Force.
-
James Neal, Sheridan Director of the Eisenhower Libraries, Johns Hopkins
University
Joan Cheverie, Head, Government Documents Department, Georgetown University and Visiting Program Officer, Coalition for Networked Information
With the increasing use and availability of information technologies, there has been a significant change in how federal agencies disseminate government information. This change is resulting in new dissemination mechanisms, as well as new and changing user needs and expectations. As a result, the responsibilities and capacities of institutions that facilitate the flow of federal information to academic and citizen communities need to be rethought in this shifting environment. This session will update attendees on the initiatives being undertaken by both the Coalition and Association of Research Libraries. "Access to and Services for Federal Information in the Networked Environment," will result in a Coalition white paper that will guide higher education and other institutions in the development of strategies for providing access to federal information by their constituencies using the powerful, and rapidly expanding global information infrastructure. ARL's Subcommittee on Government Information is exploring new models for dissemination of electronic government information. A series of pilot projects between libraries and agencies will be proposed to evaluate new dissemination mechanisms and partnerships.

Paul Evan Peters, Executive Director, Coalition for Networked
Information
Avra S. Michelson, Digital Libraries Department, MITRE Corporation
It used to be that only a small number of individuals and departments were experimenting with, let alone operating, networked information resources and services, and those resources and services supported a small number of functions. Those days are gone forever. Now that a thousand flowers have blossomed in the networked environment, institutions and organizations have begun to search for enterprise-wide strategies by which to weed out the weak strains and to cultivate the strong ones. Institutions and organizations are looking for strategies that, among other things, take account of cross-domain (e.g., from the Registrar's Office to the Physics Department and back) information flows, that span the full range of private and public communication and publication purposes, activities, and vehicles, that integrate the entire array of innovative and legacy resources and systems, and that mitigate the divisive and expensive effects of the gap between central and peripheral players at a time of intense pressure and turbulent change. Participants in this session will help to formulate a new initiative by which the Coalition will seek to play a catalytic role by synergizing the efforts of a group of institutions and organizations who have begun to work in this area and by capturing and disseminating the lessons that these institutions and organizations are learning.
