Hi all,

Hope you had a wonderful holiday!

2005 ALA Midwinter SAC Subcommittee on FAST

Our first meeting will be a brain-storming session on how to
proceed evaluating FAST project. Please read the following
papers, check FAST test database (fast.oclc.org.) and think
about the strategies. I am looking forward to our meeting in
Boston (Boston Marriott Copley Place, Northeastern) next
Friday (1/13) at 7:30 pm.
