NWIUG 2006

I just got back from two days at the Norhwest Innovative Users Group. I hosted a systems forum on the first day, which turned out okay, but there has to be a better way to make these forums more effective.

On the second day I presented on Automatic Authority Processing: Shaping it to Your Needs or Not with Lihong Zhu from Washinton State and Corey Harper from the University of Oregon. My portion consisted of the workflow process at Willamette using Backstage and Automatic Authorities, as did Zhu's from a Washington State perspective. Corey's was interesting as they have chosen not to use III's automatic processing product.

The conference as a whole was pretty good, but more III bashing and more work arounds not using the Innovative system dominated the schedule.
