Posted by elawson in events@ASIS&T, links.add a comment
The ASIS&T student chapter at UBC is involved with setting up the ASIS&T 2009 Annual Meeting Wiki. It has information on the program for the annual meeting, social events, and general information about Vancouver (you can probably guess which part we were primarily responsible for!).
Feel free to contribute to the wiki or make suggestions to the ASIS&T UBC chapter.
Remember, the ASIS&T Annual Meeting takes place in Vancouver in 2009! November 6-11 2009.

InfoCamp Seattle 2009 August 5, 2009
Posted by elawson in events.add a comment
Just registered for InfoCamp Seattle 2009!
From the wiki:
InfoCamp is an unconference for anyone interested in user experience, information architecture, user-centered design, librarianship, information management & related fields. It features an egalitarian, community-driven format in which most presentations are designed and delivered by attendees. And it’s a lot of fun!
October 10th and 11th in Seattle. Cheap for students, or free if you volunteer! Seattle’s not too far away…

Respond by July 20, 2009
To help ASIS&T student members who might not otherwise be able to participate in ASIS&T meetings, we provide an opportunity to attend the sessions and network with other members in exchange for assisting us in running the meeting. Students who have participated in our program have found the experience “terrific.”
How the Program Works
In exchange for complimentary registration, we’ll ask you to help us run the conference. You’ll serve as a room monitor for about three sessions each day for three days. In addition, you’ll help out either at our registration desk or conference headquarters for a 4-hour period on one day of the conference.
How to Participate
If you would like to be considered for this program, for the 2009 Annual Meeting, to be held November 6-11 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada . Please forward your name, address, phone, fax and e-mail numbers to:
American Society for Information Science & Technology
ATTN.: ASIS&T 2008 Annual Meeting
1320 Fenwick Lane, Suite 510

FAX: (301) 495-0810
