Set your alarm clocks, because the RLIN Committee Open Discussion is set for another early morning time slot: Monday, July 21, 7:00 - 8:15 a.m. As usual, light breakfast items will be provided, as well as beverages. We will once again distribute 'Round Robin' questions to help get our discussion going. Please contact me, or post to RLIN-Law, if you have ideas for discussion topics. The agenda will also include selection of a new RLIN Committee Chair, as my time as Chair is up. RLG Staff will also present an RLIN Forum on Sunday, July 20, 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. As I write, the place and topics are still being decided. Please post your comments and ideas to RLIN-Law, as RLG staff monitor that list, and your ideas will help them focus their presentation.

Before the annual meeting, you may wish to check out these RLIN developments, so you can bring your questions:

» Updated RLIN ILL documentation has been posted at http://www.rlg.org/illchgs.html. A new, updated manual is in the works.

» Also new on the RLG Web pages is the first issue of DigiNews, RLG's new quarterly newsletter focusing on digital images and preservation, available at http://www.rlg.org (it's listed in the "What's New" section).

» Are you tired of printing screen by screen, but you need to print out particular records in the FULL format -- and with the HOLdings segment?

Well, the newly enhanced TYPE command may now be the solution. You can now type non-contiguous ranges of records (for example, type 1, 4-5, 7-11); specify a record in a cluster that is neither your own LI nor the PCM (for example, type 3 mabl); and set the default record format for all type commands (for example, set type ful hol). To get all the details, type EXPLAIN TYPE on RLIN.

» Blackwell's enhanced LC-CIP records are now available on RLIN. There is no additional charge to search or display them on RLIN or Eureka, but there is an additional $0.10 charged to export one of these records via PASS or PUT (the price has come down!). To see sample records, search for any of these IDs:
