Call For Papers - Chemical Information on Intranets

CALL FOR PAPERS

For a symposium to be hosted by the Division of Chemical
Information of the American Chemical Society at the ACS
National Meeting in Boston, August 23-27, 1998. 

*Chemical Information on Intranets*

Intranets have become a significant medium for all sorts
of data manipulation in corporate environments.
The delivery of chemical information over intranets is
therefore an area of increasing importance. The issues
include data handling, data management, chemistry specific
application development, end user interfaces, among others.
We would like speakers to discuss the challenges and
solutions for the use of chemical information on intranets. 

Submissions should be made on an ACS Abstract form,
available from www.acs.org/meetings/abstract/abinfo.html
Please contact the organizer for further information.
The deadline for submission is April 15, 1998.

Organizer:

Andrew H. Berks, Ph.D.         Principal Chemical Information Research Scientist
Wyeth-Ayerst Research          Information Sciences and Services
