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 "missing
materials" 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. 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>
