The PCC BIBCO and CONSER Operations Committees will meet in joint and
separate sessions at the Library of Congress, May 6-7, 2010.   

ATTENDEES:
The primary attendees at the BIBCO OpCo meetings are the 10  designated
BIBCO representatives serving 3-year terms, but attendance is open to
all BIBCO institutions.  The BIBCO OpCo website will be updated soon
with new names: http://www.loc.gov/catdir/pcc/bibco/bibco_opco.html 
Please contact the BIBCO Coordinator of your intention to attend so
that we can prepare sufficient documentation and accommodate the joint
session with the CONSER Operations Committee.

AGENDA:
Agendas for joint and separate sessions will be posted in coming
weeks.  We anticipate that the agenda may include:
- the BIBCO Standard Record models for various formats
- issues related to RDA
- PCC membership models
- the 034 in name authority records
- tasks that serve the new PCC Strategic Directions

BIBCO institutions are invited to send additional topics for the agenda
to the BIBCO Coordinator ([log in to unmask]).
