"Libraries and Museums in the Digital World" was the topic of the Webwise 2010 Conference in Denver, CO. The proceedings were faithfully recorded and offered as a webcast so that visitors who could not attend could still listen to all the lectures and discussions. Some of the topics that were covered at the conference include "interoperability, the future of collaboration, standards & best practices, technology and systems development, [and] training a 21st century cultural heritage information workforce." Visitors will find the webcast archive is at the bottom of the homepage, and it is divided up into "Pre-Conference #1", "Webwise 2010 - Day 1", and "Webwise 2010 - Day 2". Some of the Pre-Conference panels are "Digital Resources for Learning Spaces" and "21st Century Learners". "Webwise 2010 - Day 2" offers a lecture on the further education of librarians and information specialists, with "Skills for the Future: Educational Opportunities for Library and Museum". There's a great deal of material here for information technology specialists, librarians, and others.
