I'm wondering if anyone on the Koha team is considering setting up tables or demos for any of the library conferences? A lot of library directors and key personel attend, especially the big conferences, and would not otherwise hear a thing about Koha. Many directors seem to cultivate a single representative from a single vendor and then have them provide ALL their information about what is and isn't possible, how much it costs, etc. Attending a conference would help break that cycle and may almost certainly add to Koha development. These two are a sampling of some of the ones I'm guessing would be most accessible from NZ: 3rd International Evidence Based Librarianship Conference 16 - 19 Oct 2005 Brisbane, Queensland, Australia http://conferences.alia.org.au/ebl2005/index.html The 8th International Conference on Asian Digital Libraries ** 12 - 15 Dec Bangkok, Thailand http://www.icadl2005.ait.ac.th/ There are, however, many others coming up: World Library and Information Congress: 72nd IFLA General Conference and Council 20-24 August 2006, Seoul, Korea http://www.ifla.org/IV/ifla72/index.htm 8th International Beilefeld Conference: Academic Library and Information Services: New Paradigms for the Digital Age 7 - 9 Feb 2006 Beilefeld, Germany http://conference.ub.uni-bielefeld.de/2006/programme/ American Library Association (Midwinter Meeting), *** 20-25 Jan 2006 San Antonio, TX, USA ---------------------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through L-secure: http://www.l-secure.net/
