Is your library doing something different and innovative with OCLC ILLiad?  Do you have a particular area of expertise that you would like to share with your colleagues?  Is there something you've been wanting to discuss concerning resource sharing, but just can't find the right forum?



The fifth International OCLC ILLiad Conference will be held on Thursday and Friday, March 19-20, 2009 at the Hilton Virginia Beach Oceanfront in Virginia Beach, VA. (Preconference will be on Wednesday, March 18, 2009.)
