To this end, I would suggest including Susan Oberlander, State Librarian. She has been supportive of some of our projects in the past and would, I'm sure, be glad to participate. For those of you who have not taken advantage of the NM State Library, I highly recommend the collection, the building and most of all those who work there. First-rate in all regards.
And for those who want a bit of brush-up on you online literature search skills, see:

I believe this is an important but subtle topic that deserves much more discussion.
I believe that the sfComplex should host a series of live discussions, probably starting with a Panel presentation by a handful of people representing differing but well-considered points of view.
I have been considering this since we opened our doors in June, but find that it is a very difficult topic. Perhaps the most difficult is the polarization that seems to come with it. I have a lot of strong opinions on this subject, some of which I've begun to try to share here. This thread (and the one it emerged from) have tapped a few of the ideas and opinions that need to be discussed.
We would need a format and possibly a good moderator to help avoid the many opportunities for spinning out.
Ideas, issues, topics are welcome.
