[FM Discuss] E-Book Annotation Sharing and Social Reading

[Janet Swisher]

This might be of interest to some on this list:

"The National Information Standards Organization (NISO) and the
Internet Archive are hosting two meetings on the topic of Standards
Development for E-Book Annotation Sharing and Social Reading with the
generous support of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. These meetings
will be held in conjunction with the Frankfurt Book Fair in Frankfurt,
Germany, and the Books In Browsers Meeting in San Francisco. Both
meetings will be held in October 2011 on the 10th and 26th
respectively."

I know Adam is going to the Frankfurt Book Fair. Maybe someone in the
SF Bay Area could attend the Books in Browsers meeting.
Ed Cherlin: This seems up your alley.
