OXFORD TEXT ARCHIVE SNAPSHOT

This is the TAGGED version of the Short List of Texts held in the Oxford
Text Archive. The list is sorted primarily by language, within that by
author and within that by title. Each title is prefixed by an identifier.
In the tagged form, each component of the list is prefixed by a tag :
<lang> at the start of a new language section
<author> at the start of a new author
Each entry starts with a <tid> tag to introduce its identifier,
followed by a <title> tag at the start of the title itself.

Subject: Report on Desktop Publishing Conference, Syracuse, NY, USA

[My apologies: somehow the name and e-address of the sender of this
message has disappeared. I assure you I did not make this up myself!
--W.M.]


A conference entitled "The Impact of Desktop Publishing on University Life
sponsored jointly by Syracuse University and the Association of American
University Presses, was held at Syracuse in mid-March. It was actually
organized by Syracuse's School of Education, whose dean, Joan Burstyn, has
become a leading proponent of DTP in academia and who feels the new technology
is going to bring profound changes in the way scholarship is disseminated.
The program was aimed at university administrators, faculty, and publications
people, as well as university press personnel. The 110 participants from
across the U.S. and Canada varied greatly in their knowledge of DTP and the
uses they are trying to make of it, which resulted in some talking at cross
purposes. But a central concern quickly emerged: the problem of control.
