The three-day conference "Progression, Innovation and New
Landscapes" has both Archives/Records and Conservation strands and
includes the popular Information Market Place. Conference speakers
will come to Brighton from the US, Germany and all parts of the UK.

Social aspects include a Latin Evening Gala Dinner and a drinks
reception at Horatio's Bar on Brighton Pier.

If you book for full conference attendance including accommodation
before Friday 20 April 2012 you will qualify for an Earlybird rate.
A number of sea-view rooms are available and these rooms will be
allocated first to reward early booking. The 2011 conference in
Edinburgh was sold out and feedback was very positive--book now to
avoid disappointment.
