Subject: Conference is "full"!
All,
The Map and Geographic Information Collections in Transition
conference, to be held at the Mumford Room, Library of Congress (Madison
Bldg.) on May 12 & 13, 2005 has reached its capacity. We are really excited
to be able to host 150 people (plus speakers, sponsors, etc.) at this two-day
event that will bring together individuals from university map/GIS/geospatial
collections, government agencies who produce and/or disseminate all forms
of geospatial data, map companies, and other interested parties to hear,
understand, even change the future of map/geographic collections! This promises
to be an exciting event, and the members of the Cartographic Users Advisory
Council, responsible for launching and hosting this meeting, look forward
to bringing a diverse group together for open communication about our geospatial
data and collections.
If you are still interested in attending I am going to start a "waiting
list" because there is bound to be a small number of individuals who cannot
attend at the last minute. Simply email me at [log in to unmask] and I'll
get you on the list and keep you informed.
Thanks to all who have registered to date (and the couple who are in the
process of doing so as of today) and I'm looking forward to meeting many new
acquaintances in May!
Sincerely,
Paige Andrew
CUAC Treasurer and Conference Registration Coordinator
