If a chapter is active in the readers' services area, the newsletter needs volunteer reporters to briefly inform the SIS. If you would like to keep the SIS readership abreast of de- velopments in your area, please send your comments to me. We plan to publish regional activities as a regular feature in the newsletter if we have information from the chapters on a regular basis. Barbara Pawloski Secretary-Treasurer REPORT ON THE WASHINCTON, D.C. CONVENTION 2001 Odyssey Program: A Report by the Program Chairman The response to the Reader Services SIS program in Washington, D.C., was out- standing. Not only did we have more than a full house for the program, but we have since received numerous favorable comments on the quality of the program and the speakers. Entitled 2001 Odyssey: Reference Services in a Time of Change, the pre- sentation focused on what reference service miaht be like twenty years from now and the preparation needed by reference librarians to meet the challenges of the Year 2001. Leading off the program, Terry Martin, Director of the Law Library at Harvard University, gave an imaginative projection of what research and reference service might be in 2001. Terry's talk, entitled Writina a Brief in the Year 2001, pre- sented an overview of the changing patterns of legal research and reference service. In HAL 9000 at the Reference Desk, Lynn Wishart, Assistant Director for Public Services at Washington & Lee University Law Library (currently Assistant Director for Research Services, Georgetown University Law Library, Washington, D.C.) spoke on the ever increasing importance of computers in leqal reference work.
