Plato's "Republic" was the inspiration for the theme of the 2009
Charleston Conference, Issues in Book and Serial
Acquisition--Necessity Is the Mother of Invention. The conference,
held November 4-7 in Charleston, South Carolins, included
preconferences, plenary sessions, and concurrent sessions. The
theme reflected the changes and innovations that are taking place
in libraries, collection development, and acquisitions as we expand
our services in the global marketplace amid tough economic times of
budget cuts, furloughs, and cancelation of some resources. We are
looking for ideas and innovation. The Charleston Conference
continues to be a major event for information exchange among
librarians, vendors, and publishers. Now in its twenty-ninth year,
the conference continues to be one of the most popular conferences
in the Southeast. Conference attendees continue to remark on the
informative and thought-provoking sessions. The conference provides
a collegial atmosphere where librarians, publishers, and vendors
talk freely and directly about issues facing their libraries and
information providers.
