Notice of Workshop

    The National Science Foundation (NSF) will hold a two-day workshop 
on the potential for digital libraries to increase both the quality of 
undergraduate science, mathematics, engineering, and technology (SMET) 
education and access to high quality SMET education. The workshop will 
be held from 7:00-9:30 PM, Tuesday, July 21; 8:30 AM-9:00 PM, 
Wednesday, July 22; and 8:30 AM-3:30 PM, Thursday, July 23, 1998 at the 
National Science Foundation, 4201 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA 22230. 
The purpose of this workshop is to gather input from potential library 
users to assist the NSF in determining and articulating the uses of 
digital libraries in undergraduate SMET education.
    Although the workshop will not operate as an advisory committee, 
the public will be invited to attend. Participants will include faculty 
and students who are potential users of SMET educational resources; 
developers of SMET educational resources including resources exploiting 
information technology; and other interested parties. A report of the 
workshop will be published for general distribution.
    For additional information, contact Drs. Lillian Cassel and Frank 
Wattenberg, Program Directors, National Science Foundation, 4201 Wilson 
Blvd., Arlington, VA 22230, [phone].
