<p class=MsoNoSpacing><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>On May 15,
2013 NFAIS will hold a 90-minute webinar from 11:00am – 12:30pm EDST that
will take at look at a report on text mining and scholarly publishing that was
published by the Publishing Research Consortium earlier this year. Our featured
speaker will be the author of the report, Jonathan Clark, an independent
advisor formerly with Elsevier as well as the former Chair and Director of the
International DOI Foundation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNoSpacing><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Why Attend?
Mining existing content to unearth new, valuable insights is becoming an
essential tool in the ongoing quest by publishers to provide information
seekers with more targeted, relevant answers to their queries. At the
recently-held 2013 NFAIS Annual conference, data mining of both textual and
non-textual content was a major topic and 43% of the attendees reported that
their organizations are actively involved in some form of information mining
initiatives. This is a hot topic not to be ignored!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
