Julie speaks about the National Geospatial Digital Archve (NGDA) and their recommendations for long term storage of geospatial data, and how this data is being implemented in the libraries.

Effective today, October 31, 2012, SULAIR News is officially retired!

The SULAIR News site at http://lib.stanford.edu/sulairnews will still be available for archival purposes. You will still be able to access and perform search queries on the SULAIR News site as well as have access to the back-issues link (also located on this site) to view the various editions/aliases of this staff bulletin; however, please do not use this site to submit articles.

It may take some time getting used to the new version of the SUL News bulletin, but for those of us who can boast having seen many iterations of the staff news bulletin, this isn't the first time the bulletin has changed names or venues.
