Dark and Stormy ISSN Secrets

DESCRIPTION

ISSN may seem a simple subject but behind those 8 characters there is a lot going on. Learn about some of the shadowy situations that ISSN staff handle, and the detective work they sometimes have to do, as well as some ISSN facts-- just the facts, ma’am-- that might surprise you. The presentation will also pull back the curtain on some bright and shiny things to come in the ISSN world and will leave room for questions.
