Subject: Medlib digest 14.-16.11., Scout-Report

Liebe Medibibler,
der Termin fuer die 8te Internationale Konferenz on Medical Librarianship
steht auch schon fest, es ist im Jahre 2000 in London. Wer es also schon mal
in seinen Terminkalendar eintragen moechte...
Der 7te steht uns uebrigens auch noch bevor: 7.-12.5.95 in Wahington, DC.

In unserem amerikanischen Gegenpart, medlib-l, streiten sich momentan die
Experten noch ueber die Herkunft des Freud'schen Zitats, dass manchmal eine
Zigarette nur eine Zigarette sei. Mittlerweile sind sie bis R. Kypling
vorgedrungen, der gesagt haben soll, das eine Frau eine Frau sei, aber eine
Zigarette eine Zigarette (oder so aehnlich, ich habe die Mail leider
geloescht). Dieses Bonmot wird anscheinend nur noch von jenem amerikanischen
Politiker uebertroffen, der folgendes losgelassen hat: "Alles, was wir
brauchen, ist eine billige 5-cent-Zigarette (fuer das Volk) !"

So, jetzt ist aber genug mit der Zigarettenwerbung, auf an die (Arbeit)
Information !

> ====================================================
> INTERPSYCH - THE INTERNET MENTAL HEALTH ORGANIZATION
> ====================================================
>
> InterPsych is a non-profit making, voluntary organization,
> established on the Internet with the aim of promoting
> international scholarly collaboration on inter-disciplinary
> research and intervention efforts in the field of
> psychopathology. The organization offers a variety of scholarly
> electronic conferences via e-mail, and real time conferences.
> Plans are underway for an electronically distributed journal.
>
> InterPsych has over 7000 members throughout the world, including
> many leading academics, research scientists, clinical
> practitioners, and students. Our membership is drawn from
> disciplines as diverse as anthropology, computer science,
> neuroscience, pharmacology, philosophy, psychiatry, psychology,
> and sociology.
>
> InterPsych has two main aims:
>
> 1. To foster interdisciplinary debate and empirical collaboration
> on all aspects of psychopathology. We believe that an
> eclectic approach will produce refinements in the theory and
> practice of psychiatry and clinical psychology.
>
> 2. To encourage and promote the use of the vast resources of the
> Internet by both academics and clinical practitioners. The
> Internet offers the possibility of rapid dissemination of
> research findings, and ease in conducting discussions over
> disciplinary and geographic boundaries.
>
> To fulfill these aims INTERPSYCH has set up the following electronic
> resources for its members:
>
> 1. THE INTERPSYCH NEWSLETTER
> 2. SCHOLARLY E-MAIL CONFERENCES
> 3. REAL-TIME (SYNCHRONOUS) CONFERENCES
>
> Each of these is described in detail below:
>
> =========================
> The Interpsych Newsletter
> =========================
>
> The InterPsych Newsletter is a monthly publication distributed free
> of charge to all InterPsych members. The newsletter's mission mirrors
> that of the organization, fulfilling these goals by providing concise
> and timely information relevant to InterPsych members. The newsletter
> contains articles on current events in mental health, updates from the
> organization and from the electronic conferences, new mental health
> resources on the Internet, as well as listings of physical and
> electronic conferences and employment opportunities from around the
> world. You will receive this publication automatically when you join
> any of InterPsych's scholarly electronic conferences.
>
> For further information contact the Editor-in-Chief, Sean Sullivan
> <ssulliva@opal.tufts.edu>
>
> =============================================
> InterPsych's Scholarly Electronic Conferences
> =============================================
>
> The motto of InterPsych is 'There is someone wiser than
> any of us, and that is all of us.' InterPsych's electronic
> conferences exist to provide a forum for scholarly and clinical
> discussion of all aspects of psychopathology. Individuals doing
> research, scholarship, or clinical work (or those who have an
> interest) in the areas described below are invited to join these
> e-mail conferences. Our hope is that these forums will be
> entertaining and informative, and perhaps will be a breeding
> ground for conceptual and theoretical innovation. When you elect
> to join any of InterPsych's conferences, you will be sent an
> introduction which elaborates further on the purposes of the
> conference, lists files in the conference archives, and gives
> instructions for participating in a conference.
>
> To join a conference, send the following message (without a
> subject heading) --
