<font face="Verdana">Time is ticking away for you to register for
this year's Evergreen ILS International conference, being held in
Hood River, Oregon, on May 13-16! Rooms at the conference venue,
the <a href="http://hoodriverinn.com/">Hood River Inn</a>, </font>must
be booked by April 20th in order to lock in the great conference
room rate.<br>
<br>
There are a lot of great programs at the conference for users,
administrators, and programmers alike. Check out the full schedule,
including the list of presentations, here:<br>

We're excited to have Joseph Janes, professor and chair of the MLIS
program at the University of Washington Information School, as our
keynote speaker. Janes has written and spoken extensively on how
libraries are evolving and improving.<br>

You can get all that, plus the opportunity to spend some time in the
beautiful Columbia River Gorge, for the low, low registration rate
of $250. Registration is available here:<br>

<br>
It's not too late to help out Evergreen by sponsoring the
conference. Even individuals can get in on the action; there's a
$200 sponsorship level that's just right for individuals who want to
support the open source Evergreen ILS community. There are other
plenty of other sponsorship opportunities as well.<br>

The Conference Planning Committee would also like to thank our
conference sponsors. Without their support, we would not be able to
make the conference affordable for all of our attendees.<br>
