This Monday, the Potomac Valley and Catholic University Chatpers of ASIS&T had a National Meeting Preview Event, where four presenters gave a taste of what they’ll be talking about at the conference. I wasn’t able to attend, but thought I would share:

• Graduate Information Programs and Accreditation: Landscape Survey and Analysis – ASIS&T president Nancy Roderer presenting research by Samantha Becker of the University of Washington.

• FRBR Applied to Scientific Data – Joseph A. Hourclé, Virtual Solar Observatory

• JASIS&T Open Access Policy and the ASIS&T Scholarly Communication Survey by Margeaux Johnson – Margeaux Johnson, University of Maryland iSchool

• Extending Sense-Making Models with Ideas from Cognition and Learning Theories – Pengyi Zhang, University of Maryland iSchool
