[KS] Survey on Korean Electronic Database Workshop

[Hyokyoung Yi]

Dear Koreanists,

 

The Committee on Korean Materials of the Council on East Asian Libraries
needs your help.  We would like to know if Korean studies scholars would
be interested in learning about Korean databases which are becoming
increasingly available in full texts, directly accessible from your
desktop in the comfort of your home or office. 

 

We will appreciate your participation in the following SHORT survey.
The findings will help us to determine our future program.   If your
responses indicate enough need or interest, we (Korean studies
librarians in North America) would like to provide a hands-on workshop
in the near future (possibly in conjunction with AAS Conference 2004 or
2005.)

 

Workshop participants would learn the following:

 

*	What free or commercial databases are available in their fields
of interest (full-text and bibliographic) 
*	How to access them 
*	Searching techniques in respective databases 
*	Free or economical document delivery options 
*	Techniques for handling Hangul in various environments 
*	Where to get help when facing problems. 

 

We will appreciate your taking a few minutes to answer the following 5
questions.

 

1.	Would you be interested in attending such a workshop?   Yes___
No___ 

 

2.	If Yes, would the AAS Conference be a convenient time for you?
