Drexel University Special Libraries Association (DUSLA)

The group has been debriefing in conference calls and real live get togethers, but we thought we should share here, too.

Here are a few of the presentations I attended that stuck with me:

• "What do they want from us?" Don King summarizing 30 years worth of studies on the information seeking behavior of faculty. He used the economic theory of "contigent valuation" to estimate the financial impact of library services at a University amounted to 20 FTEs per year.
  
• "Branding SOS" with Chris Olson. A logo is not a brand! (More from BrandyKing on the conference blog.)
• "Reporting of Negative Results from Clinical Trials" with James T. O’Reilly, Visiting Professor of Law, University of Cincinnati on "SECRECY & DRUG EXPERIMENTATION"
• "New web tools" by Gene Tybersi and Gary Price
