    I hope you've all made it safely to Seattle and enjoyed the lovely afternoon and evening.

    I have made a slight adjustment to the agenda. Tim Lloyd of Alexander Street Press will be joining us. Revised agenda is below and attached as a separate document.

    • Welcome and Introductions
    • Announcements
    • Discussion topics:

    Responding to faculty requests to make materials available online or through a course management site

    Exploring challenges dance librarians face in getting audio and video material hosted online.

    Tim Lloyd of Alexander Street Press will provide information about ongoing projects to help libraries host their audiovisual materials on the APS platform.

    • Dance in Seattle:

    Chamber Dance Company: Background on the company and preview of recently completed documentaries on Bebe Miller.

    Sandra Kurtz will speak informally about a critic's perspective on using dance collections and documenting local dance history.

    Sandra Kurtz teaches and writes about dance in Seattle, Washington. She has degrees in theater, dance, and movement analysis, and has taught at the University of Washington and Cornish College. Sandi helped to found the Northwest Dance Coalition (1983-89) and edited its newsletter.
