Re: Electronic license class
There's a two-day workshop being offered by ARL, called "License Review and Negotiation: Building a Team-Based Institutional Process." It's excellent, and may be more practical for you (and others in your situation) than a week-long class. If you're planning on attending ALA, you can go to DC a couple of days early and catch it on June 25-26. For more info, check out the ARL website at http://www.arl.org.
