T he Eighth Off-Campus Library Services Conference was held April 22-24, 1998, at the Biltmore Hotel in Providence, Rh Island. Sponsored by the Central Michigan University (CMU) Libraries and CMU Col­ lege of Extended Learning, the conference attracted approximately 220 participants from throughout the United States and Canada, as well as South Africa and the United Kingdom. The program addressed a host of issues related to off-campus services, including remote service program planning, partnering with individuals and institutions, copyright and licensing, telelearning, elec­ tronic reserves, staffing implications, out­ comes assessment, and marketing services. Featured speakers were Kay J. Kohl, ex­ ecutive director of the University Continu­ ing E ducation A ssocia tion and Kurt Sloboclzian, university librarian and dean of Instructional Technology at the University of Phoenix. Kohl’s talk, “Trends in Continu­ ing Education,” examined the changing de­ mographics of higher education, noting that shifts in work and educational patterns and demands among the general population will raise the ages of both new and returning students in academe, and that these shifts will affect the ways in which large segments of the population choose to pursue continu­ ing educational opportunities. Slobodzian’s talk, entitled “Libraries at a Distance: Past, Present, and Future,” explored library ser­ od vices in support of adult education from within a corporate learning environment, noting that e the online learning market will grow 900 percent by 2001, and that there is only “1 percent market penetration of adult educa­ tion.”
