[apologies for any duplication; please forward as appropriate] ICHIM07 - International Cultural Heritage Informatics Meetings Toronto, October 24-26, 2007 http://www.archimuse.com/ichim07/
** The preliminary program for ICHIM07 is now on-line. ** Thanks once again goes to the Program Committee who helped review proposals and recommend selections. Speakers are coming from 20 countries around the world to present their work at the only conference at which senior policy makers from around the world gather with technology practitioners, researchers, information designers and the staffs of cultural repositories - libraries, archives and museums - to imagine and direct informatics services for culture and heritage knowledge. ** Briefing Opportunities still available. ** If you have a project you would like to tell others about, there is still a chance to feature your work. Briefing proposals will be accepted until June 30, 2007. Make your proposal on-line at http://www.archimuse.com/ichim07/papers/ichim07.proposal.form.html ** Register Online ** We're looking forward to having ICHIM back in North America -- we haven't met on this side of the Atlantic since 1999. Our facility, the MaRS Centre at the University of Toronto, will be great [no hotel tech to deal with!, but it has one down-side: we have to limit registration because of the capacity of the auditorium. That will mean a more closely knit group and a better chance for conversations.
