Given that Mark Monmonier is one of the two keynote speakers, the talk
relates to "twentieth century and beyond," and given that he is editor
for vol. 6 of the _History of Cartography_ series, I thought I'd mention
the "Exploratory Essays: History of Cartography in the Twentieth
Century" site:
http://www.geography.wisc.edu/histcart/v6initiative/#essays . Although
obviously over a decade old, these are still quite good. Douglas
Richardson, although also a keynote speaker for the upcoming May
meeting, was not a contributor to that earlier group of papers.
For those of us who cannot attend in May, we can hope for a webcast.

There is now a brochure available for the May meeting of the Philip Lee
Phillips society. It looks like a great (and free!) 2 day meeting.
Just click on the postcard-sized image to see the PDF:
