March 21, 2014 Meeting Notes

Meeting Notes

Wade Bishop, an Assistant Professor in the School of Information Sciences at U. of Tennessee, Knoxville, discussed his research on the Geoweb. A copy of his article, "Digital Curation and the GeoWeb: An Emerging Role for Geographic Information Librarians" from the Journal of Map & Geography Libraries can be found here.

Mr. Bishop has invited NDSA-GEO members to speak at one of his future classes. The remaining available class dates are April 4th and 11th are the dates left in my class for guest lectures. He notes that the 11th class is actually addressing archives and data centers, so that may be an opportune date.

If interested, please get in touch with him at bbisho13@utk.edu.

Slides from today's presentation here (caution, large PPT file).
