The AIfIA newsletter is published every other week (pretty
much) and features news about what's new with AIfIA and with
our partner sites.

So let's get to the news!



---- WHAT'S NEW WITH AIFIA -- http://www.aifia.org ----

1) INTRODUCTION TO IA BROCHURES
Two new brochures were uploaded to the IA Tools that help introduce information architecture to business and technical people. They both feature artwork by Dan Willis, famous for "IA Classics: Tools of the Trade in Comic Book Form." There are full color 6"x8" versions suitable for postcards, and an 8.5"x11" black and white version for any printer. Both are covered by a creative commons license and can be modified to suit your needs.

2) AIFIA SPONSORS 1ST IA CONFERENCE IN SCANDINAVIA
AIfIA will be an official sponsor of the Danish Research Library Association's Forum for Information Architecture (DF-IA) conference. The conference will be held March 9th - 10th, 2004 in Korsoer, Denmark. AIfIA is providing in-kind promotional and logistical support for the conference under its new Event Sponsorship Program. In return, AIfIA members receive a discount on registration fees.

---- WHAT'S NEW WITH OUR PARTNERS ----



-- IASLASH -- http://www.iaslash.org

Some good links that have been posted to iaslash in the past
few weeks:

IASLASH is back (After a few weeks of struggling to get our domain released from a very bad registrar, iaslash is finally back up.)

Visual communities are difficult to work on, there is no simple web community to work on

iaslash is daily news for information architects, operated
by AIfIA --> http://iaslash.org/



-- BOXES AND ARROWS -- http://www.boxesandarrows.com/

Two good recent Boxes and Arrows articles:

1) Contrary to first impression, an “executive dashboard” is not found in a CIO's car. Rather, an executive dashboard, also known as a manager dashboard, executive cockpit, or digital cockpit, is a child of what in the 1980s was referred to as the Executive Information System (EIS).

2) What is Dublin Core? And why would you need a whole conference about it? The end of September and beginning of October brought representatives from various countries around the world to a sunny and warm Seattle, Washington, host of the 2003 Dublin Core Conference.
