The meeting will be held Sept 15-18, 2004 in the stunning new downtown Central Library of the Seattle Public Library which opened on May 23, 2004 to rave reviews (for a selection of press coverage, see: http://www.spl.org/default.asp?pageID=branch_central_mediaprofiles&branchID=1) The meeting will migrate to the University of Washington campus for the afternoon sessions on Fri Sept 17. We've arranged for very affordable accomodations at the historic Panama Hotel in Seattle's International District (make your reservations before August 18 for the best rate!). The program includes a varied selection of topics and speakers. The banquet and field trip will feature the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. When making your travel plans, consider staying over Saturday night Sept 18 so you can take part in that day's field trip to the Mt St Helens National Volcanic Monument (which will last a MINIMUM of 12 hours). We can only accomodate 30 people on this trip, so register early! Registration forms will go in the mail this week. They are also available to download/print from the meeting website http://www.lib.washington.edu/maps/waml/ You can also get to this website from from the WAML page: http://www.waml.org/wmlmtgs.html Please direct any questions about the meeting to: Mary Douglass Seattle Public Library [log in to unmask] OR Anne Zald University of Washington Libraries [log in to unmask] We look forward to seeing you in Seattle!!
