> We are pleased to announce the 1999 joint conference of the
> International Association for Social Science Information
> Service and Technology (IASSIST) and the Canadian Association
> of Public Data Users (CAPDU).
>
> These meetings will begin with two days of workshops followed
> by three days of conference. In addition, a gala social event
> will be held to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of IASSIST.
>
> Hosted on the University of Toronto campus, this year's theme
> is "Building bridges, breaking barriers: the future of data
> in the global network" and will focus on the partnerships
> needed to provide open access to data using network technology.
> Invited plenary speakers include Katherine Wallman (U.S. Office
> of Management and Budget), Ray Ryan (Statistics Canada),
> Antonio Puig (Instituto Nacional de Estadistica Geografia
> e Informatica), Hermann Habermann (UN Statistics Division),
> Stephen Fienberg (Carnegie Mellon University), Tom Smith
> (General Social Survey), and Phil Agre (University of California,
> Los Angeles).
>
> CALL FOR PAPERS: The Program Committee welcomes proposals
> for papers, panels, poster sessions, and demonstrations that
> focus on the conference theme of the future of data resources
> and services in a global network. We live with a ubiquitous
> computing technology that boasts of providing universal
> delivery of information over a global network, and yet the
> information cultures of many countries present barriers to
> public data access. What is the future of both numeric and
> textual data in the global network?
>
> Submissions incorporating the following themes are especially
> welcome: directions for data access from international and
> national statistical agencies; innovations in the application
> of data in classroom instruction; the future of international
> survey research projects; the impact of network technology on
> data services; challenges to data preservation in the global
> network; the future of data librarians and data archivists
> (does disintermediation mean the death of data service
> professionals?); data futures in qualitative and quantitative
> research; and inroads in data documentation and metadata
> standards.
>
> AUDIENCE: IASSIST conferences bring together professionals
> who are engaged in the creation, acquisition, processing,
> documentation, maintenance, distribution, preservation, and
> analysis of computerized social science data. CAPDU is composed
> of users who are concerned about public access to data for
> the purposes of research and policy analysis. The complementary
> and overlapping interests of these two organizations provide
> a rich spectrum of expertise in which to explore new ideas
> and solutions to problems.
>
> CONFERENCE DETAILS: The conference will open with CAPDU
> meetings on Sunday May 16, followed by joint workshops on
> Monday the 17th and Tuesday, May 18th. May 19th through
> the 21st will consist of three days of plenaries, sessions,
> panels, and social events. The Conference sessions will
> be held on the campus of the University of Toronto. Some
> hotel accommodations are within comfortable walking distance
> of the conference site; University residence accomodation
> will also be available. A post-conference excursion to
> Niagara Falls is also being planned for Saturday, May 22nd.
