CMDS/PARS discussion group

    The CMDS/PARS Discussion Group will meet at the ALA Mid-Winter
    meeting in New Orleans.  The group is scheduled for Sunday
    January 11, 9:30-11 AM, in the New Orleans Hilton--Prince of
    Wales Room.

    The topic will be: Collaborations Between Collection Development
    and Preservation in the Digital Age: from Optional to Necessity

     What are the new problems (and opportunities?) for collecting
     and preserving information in digital formats?

     Are "collecting" and "preserving" the same thing in a digital
     environment?

     How do the demands of electronic information affect traditional
     preservation concerns?

     ....many more??

    Please bring your own concerns, questions, insights and
    curiosity!
