Museum Computer Network (MC9) Conference 2009 - Join live webcasts of sessions

The Museum Computer Network is pleased to announce that five MCN 2009 sessions will be webcast live, free of charge. MCN 2009 takes place November 11th-14th, 2009 in Portland, Oregon. While we urge everyone who is interested to attend the conference in person as the only way to engage with its full array of workshops, sessions, events, exhibitors, and networking opportunities, we know that some are unable to do so because of especially acute funding issues this year. If you can't be with us at the conference, we hope these webcasts may enable you still to benefit from some of its knowledge sharing. If you find this useful, we encourage you to join MCN to help support these efforts for the wider community.

The webcasts will be on Thursday and Friday, November 12 and 13. We'll use Twitter to harvest online questions during Q&A in those sessions, which are:

• Museum Data Exchange
• Tweets to Sweeten Collaborations for Archives, Libraries, and Museums
• Libraries, Archives, and Museums: From Collaboration to Convergence
• Ramping Up while Scaling Down: Strategic Innovation in Challenging Times
• 2009 Conference Roundup Roundtable
