The conference on standards-based web design run by the guy who convinced us all to be standard, Jeffrey Zeldman, has recently announced a special discount for employees of libraries and museums. Here it is (super-secret discount code at the bottom):
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------- AN EVENT APART WEB DESIGN CONFERENCE -- LIBRARY & MUSEUM DISCOUNTS UP TO $200 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------- An Event Apart, the design conference for people who make websites, wants to make it easier for museum and library staff to attend. So they are offering museum and library personnel a special discount of $100 off the earlybird price -- a full $200 off the regular price. Web design gurus Jeffrey Zeldman and Eric Meyer founded An Event Apart (http://aneventapart.com/) <http://aneventapart.com/%29> to promote web standards and best practices while providing creative inspiration. The two-day shows features industry-leading designers and thinkers such as Dan Cederholm, Dave Shea, Jared Spool, Liz Danzico, Andy Clarke, Cameron Moll, Stephanie Sullivan, Douglas Bowman, Luke Wroblewski, Jason Santa Maria, Aaron Gustafson, Tantek Celik, and more, along with conference founders Zeldman and Meyer. It's like bringing your bookshelf to life. And networking and enjoying great food while you're at it. FOUR GREAT CITIES ------------------------------------------------------ This year An Event Apart will hold four shows around the U.S., starting with An Event Apart New Orleans (http://www.aneventapart.com/events/2008/neworleans/ ) on April 24-25.

Each event stars twelve brilliant speakers, leading fourteen information-packed sessions in two jam-packed, nine-and-a-half-hour long days. They're An Event Apart's biggest shows ever, and we'd love to have you with us. That's where Meetup member discounts can help! $100 OFF EARLYBIRD ($200 OFF FULL PRICE) ------------------------------------------------------ To get your $100 discount (exclusively for library and museum staff and colleagues), just enter discount code AEAMULI while registering for any of the four 2008 shows at https://store.aneventapart.com/ .
