The AAO Program Committee is pleased to present the final
program for the 2010 conference “From Daguerreotype to Flickr: Grappling
with the Archival Image in an Era of Technological Change.”
The conference will be held in Barrie, Ontario from 16-18
June. The program and on-line registration is now available on the AAO web
site. The conference site includes
details about the locale, venue, the two workshops being offered,
accommodations, the full conference program and other relevant information.
Here is the link: http://aao.fis.utoronto.ca/aaoconference/index.html.
When
registering, please be advised that although the site asks you for your membership
number it is not mandatory to include it. You also will have the ability to pay
on-line by credit card or request an invoice. Be sure to read the details
before registering in order to avoid any errors from arising. Please note, that
you will be asked to select the sessions that you would like to attend at a
later date. This will enable us to gauge how many will be attending each
session and select appropriate rooms in advance. Finally, those who are not
interested in registering on-line can contact [log in to unmask] for a pdf
version of the registration form, which can be printed off and sent in by mail.
The
official AAO 2010 Conference Facebook site has also been updated. We would
encourage those on Facebook to join this group in order to access the newest
updates about the conference and perhaps share your ideas and thoughts with
other colleagues who have joined this new AAO group about the conference and
the theme of archival photographs. The Facebook site can be accessed through
this link: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=149076910677.
The
program includes approximately 45 speakers from a myriad of different fields,
most of whom are experts in the area of photography. The location of Barrie is
conveniently situated close to Toronto and offers a wide array of cultural and
recreational attractions. We would encourage you to check out the conference
site and join us in Barrie, Ontario for this stimulating and thought-provoking
event. Make sure to register early in order to enjoy the early bird rates!
