I am recording a new Talking with Talis programme with James Michalko, President and CEO of RLG, on Tuesday 13 December.
Jim will be talking around a number of areas in which RLG are currently active, doubtless including their RedLightGreen service, and their membership of the new Open Content Alliance.
Quoting from the RLG web site,
“RLG supports researchers and learners worldwide by expanding access to research materials held in libraries, archives, and museums.
RLG works with and for its member organizations enhancing their ability to provide research resources. RLG designs and delivers innovative information discovery services, organizes collaborative programs, and takes an active role in creating and promoting relevant standards and practices.”
If you have any questions that you would like put to Jim, please send them to podcasts [at] talis [dot] com by Friday 9 December.

I am recording a new Talking with Talis programme with Roy Tennant of the California Digital Library on Tuesday 15 November.
Quoting from Roy’s site,
“At the California Digital Library I have been instrumental in the development and deployment of the eScholarship Repository and the eScholarship Editions publishing services. I presently manage the Metasearch Infrastructure Project and participate in the Harvesting Infrastructure Project, as well as a number of other CDL projects. The fruits of some of these efforts can be seen in prototype form on my prototyping server.”
“Prior to joining the CDL, I created and managed the Berkeley Digital Library SunSITE for the UC Berkeley Library, a digital library and support service for digital library developers.”
Recently, Roy has been vocal in challenging some of the current ways in which we build and deliver library services. In an environment supported by principles from Web 2.0, is there not a more collaborative way in which we can build better and more timely solutions that truly meet the needs of our users?
If you have any questions that you would like put to Roy, please send them to podcasts [at] talis [dot] com by Monday, 14 November.
