Update Nov 2009:

The Technology Committee is working on a project to begin cataloging the plethora of terms we encounter in the planetarium field. Planetarium technology is rapidly advancing, and new terminology is often confusing. At the same time, new planetarians are often unfamiliar with the traditional jargon of the planetarium field. The Glossary Project on which this committee is working will organize and define new and old terms so that IPS members will be able to communicate more effectively. Look to these web pages every so often for additions to our collection of terms.

The Technology Committee welcomes volunteers! Please e-mail the committee chairperson if you would like to work on the project, or even if you have a suggestion related to our work.
