Message from the SIG Manager
Members of the Online SIG of STC develop and share knowledge on all aspects of electronic publishing, distribution, and exchange of information.
The Online SIG Web Team is currently developing dynamic web services for all of STC. The first service is the STC Forum, http://stcforum.org. STC members, please visit and register if you haven't yet. If you are a member and experience difficulty registering, please click the link in the Announcement area at the top.
The Online SIG also has a collaborative website, Hyperviews Online, bringing back our newsletter and replacing this site for future information. Members, please visit http://stc-on.org/online, register, and leave comments. Soon members will be invited to volunteer to contribute to the site.
The SIG has a members-only email list and participates in networking events at the STC Annual Conference. Our rechartering report and plan is posted on this site (pdf file).
