LAUC-LA Recorded Programs


Some of the most important recent LAUC and LAUC-LA programs have been recorded on cassette tape or video. All of these programs are relevant to today's struggles with electronic media and librarians' roles with information access. Request copies for viewing or listening from Miki Goral, LAUC-LA Archivist (miki@library.ucla.edu ).

Like Information for Chocolate: Predictions to Die For       July 12, 1994 (2 cassette tapes.)

Barbara Quint (Quint & Assoc.), Peter Lyman (USC Dean of Libraries) and Clifford Lynch (UC Div. Of Library Automation Director).

Interesting for the early views of Lyman and Lynch on the emerging electronic information age.

Quo Vadis Librarianship?       July 27, 1995 (2 cassette tapes)

Sue Curzon (Dean of Libraries, CSUN), Suzanne Johnson (LAPL), Susan Goldberg Kent (LA City Librarian), and Joel Short (UCLA Computing Sciences) discuss how the internet and cyberspace has changed libraries and information forms and access.
         
       
It Ain't Library School Anymore: The Education of the New Librarian       June 17, 1996 (2 video tapes, 2 cassette tapes)

Christine Borgman (UCLA, GSEIS Chair), Hal Varian (SIMS Dean, UCB), Stuart Sutton (SLIS Dean, San Jose State Univ.) discuss the "new" training for librarians in the electronic age. A good show by three innovative library school deans!
         
       
Copyright and Fair Use in the Digital World       (1 cassette tape--2 sides)

Stuart Biegel (UCLA Education Dept., and Law)
"Legal Aspects of Digital Information and Media: Who owns information on the Internet?"

John Perry Barlow (Electronic Frontier Foundation, Greatful Dead)
"The Electronic Frontier Foundation: Crime and Puzzlement and The Great Work."

Alison O. Bunting (UCLA AUL for Sciences)
"Implications of Digitally Delivered Materials for the Library."

An amazing program, as timely now as then. Alison was brilliant, even with a CL crazy asking questions, Barlow was passionate in his plea to free the internet of copyright restrictions, and Biegel articulately outlined the myriad problems. This is a must-hear program!
