font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>Theft and loss of materials held in
libraries and archives worldwide is a concern not only for owning institutions,
but also for the international antiquarian book trade and global law
enforcement. Centralized, highly-visible exposure of &quot;missing
materials&quot; is needed to help identify stolen materials, recover missing
items and deter future crimes. Together with the RLG Partnership, the RBMS
Security Committee and the ABAA, OCLC Research developed MissingMaterials.org,
a free mechanism for sharing reliable information about missing rare books and
other materials at the network level.&nbsp; In order for this solution to work,
however, it is of vital importance that the community use it. This webinar will
be held twice, at 10 am and 4 pm EDT, to accommodate attendees in different
time zones.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
