Registrations for the conference are now coming in! Thanks to Songqian and Junior Tidal for working on the reg. link!
As we prepare, here's task list update--please respond to items with your name!
1) Poster finalists--we've got 3 finalists. thanks Joe for work on this!
2) Vendor support--any word yet, Jane or Sharon?
3) We aren't doing the webcast--Joe, myself, Jane and I decided that it wasn't worth the time and effort given a variety of factors.
3) Songqian is now getting questions from registrants and will be forwarding them to BL, JF, and JD for advice on answering these. thanks Songqian for the work on the registrations!
4) Regarding registration/handout materials--I recommended that we keep this conference green as possible--no folders, no bags, no notepads, no plastic badges (just paper adhesive badges) maybe just a handout with program info, plus evaluation form. All, what are your thoughts?
7) Please promote the event! Send out the registration announcement....we've taken care of ACRLNY, CULIBS, METRO-L, SUNYLA, Joe, can you send to the Palmer School, LIU, Rutgers, etc.--the same list servs you did before?
8) Danielle will be doing final revision to the website. Joe has gathered all revisions and has sent them to her.
Thanks

In agreement about not having handouts, save for the program. Paper badges are swell. I will take care of some of this if needed, but I will be away from Oct. 15-19.
I have sent e-mails to vendors, and will follow-up with regular mail. If anyone has contacts at Ex Libris, YBP or Baker & Taylor, please let me know.
While we should try to be green, if vendors come pads and pens are advertising for them, and people do like to make notes.
I was wondering if we could get any vendor to furnish flash drives that would be loaded with the presentations. What do you all think?
Jane
I have contacted by e-mail the following vendors. Please let me know if you know any others.
EBSCO, Springer, Coutts, Elsevier, Ebrary, Alibris, Wiley/Blackwell,SAGE.

I like the idea of flash drives. If vendors have pads, pens--that's ok by me. As long as we're not buying extra stuff.
Agree with Sarah-only a program.
