InetBib is an electronic mailing list. I launched InetBib in May 1994 at
the Library of the Technische Universität Dortmund, formerly University
of Dortmund. The original idea was to support librarians using the
Internet. Nowadays most people are able to use the Internet. But many
projects are related to it and the objective of InetBib is to prevent
reinventing the wheel. InetBib is a communication platform to hear about
new projects and to co-ordinate them. Currently more than 5000 people
are subscribed to InetBib.
Since 1996 there have been ten InetBib Conferences with the same goal:
to exchange information about the efficient use of the Internet. When we
organise a conference we make a point of two things: First there must be
an attractive agenda. Secondly the well being of the visitors, the
speakers and the exhibitors is very important. Only in a pleasant
atmosphere you are able to learn something new.
The conferences take place at a different location each time - each of
them has its own character. We had been to Dortmund (of course),
Potsdam, Cologne, Oldenburg, Göttingen, Frankfurt/Main, Bonn, Münster
and Würzburg. The conferences are self-supporting. If you want to know
more about the conferences, please have a look at the
conferences website (German).
For now this is the only English text at this site, I am sorry. Most of
the e-mails written to InetBib are in German, but e-mails are also
accepted in English, of course. If you like, feel free to subscribe. If
you have any questions about InetBib, please send me an e-mail. I am the
administrator of the list.
