Berners-Lee Receives Paul Evan Peters Award

Web pioneer Tim Berners-Lee will soon be honored as the first recipient of the Paul Evan Peters Award, which recognizes notable, lasting achievements in the use of networked communications to advance scholarship and intellectual productivity. Presented by the Association of Research Libraries and EDUCAUSE, sponsoring organizations of the Coalition for Networked Information (CNI), the award honors the memory and accomplishments of Paul Evan Peters (1947-1996), founding executive director of CNI.

Program Plan and Accomplishments

The 2000 Program Plan, which outlines the programmatic initiatives for EDUCAUSE, is now available online. Also available is an assessment of the association's goals and objectives for 1999. Both are PDF files.


Changing Landscape

In the January/February issue of EDUCAUSE Review, Barry Munitz looks at American higher education as it sheds centuries of tradition and moves toward a competitive knowledge industry of entrepreneurial players and digital technologies.


Electronic Records Preservation

If you're concerned about electronic records preservation, a few resources might be of help. "It's 10 O'Clock: Do You Know Where Your Data Are?" is a useful paper, as is a film which appeared on PBS: "Into the Future: On the Preservation of Knowledge in the Electronic Age." InterPARES, an international collaborative research project, is a promising current initiative.
Worth Noting
"Clearly, the shift to electronic content has now gone beyond the automation of existing library services and activities."
