Hi Everyone!

The registration is now open for the ACMLA 2007 conference. For the
registration form please go to:
http://www.ssc.uwo.ca/assoc/acml/McGill/registration.html

Important Information!

The field trip has been organized for the Saturday. Spots are limited
(42 people maximum).
The itinerary is as follows:
Morning: Tour of the McGill Rare Book Room and their maps, and the
Pointe-a-Callieres museum.
Lunch: At the Atwater Market
Afternoon: Bus tour of Old Montreal, Lachine Canal and Mountain. The bus
tour is called: "Between River and Mountain: A First Encounter with the
City".
An alternative introduction to the city's history, culture and
architecture. From the heights of Mount Royal to the industrial
south-west and the riverfront in Old Montreal, this unusual tour, which
is especially designed for visitors from Quebec or elsewhere, explores
the basic patterns of Montreal's social reality.
