[SOA] MAC Annual meeting Apr 27-29

[Janet Carleton]

The Midwest Archives Conference is pleased to announce its upcoming 
Annual Meeting, "MAC in Bloom," April 27-29, 2006 in 
Bloomington/Normal, Illinois.

With MAC's new theme-based, content-heavy symposium format debuting 
this fall, the spring meeting will be the one event each year that 
combines the workshops, tours, sessions and networking events that 
have built MAC's reputation as a leader among archival professional 
organizations nationwide--and a real bargain besides! This spring's 
Annual Meeting has something for everyone in the fields of archives, 
special collections librarianship, conservation, public history and 
museum work. Be sure to come--it'll be well worth your while!

Content highlights include workshops on oral history, preserving 
scrapbooks, and outreach; a plenary session by Pulitzer 
Prize-winning-author Leon Dash; a tour of the Lincoln Presidential 
library in nearby Springfield, Illinois; and sessions on small museum 
development, preserving the history of Midwestern Latinos, the 
lending of rare research items, and many others!  Of course, this is 
in addition to the other great tours, gatherings and events that make 
the MAC Annual Meeting so important.  Up-to-date conference 
information, committee contacts, an on-line program and a printable 
registration form is all available at the meeting Web site: 
http://www.midwestarchives.org/illinois/.

Come and see what MAC veterans have long known: The professional 
development experience and value provided by a MAC meeting is hard to 
beat!  Hope to see you in Illinois this spring for MAC in Bloom!
