[PADG:507] Changing Book conference discount registration ends June 20



The Changing Book: Transitions in Design, Production & Preservation

July 22-25, 2005, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa

JUNE 20: Early bird registration deadline. Register by this date and receive a significant discount. http://www.lib.uiowa.edu/book2005/pages/registration.htm

What is The Changing Book?

The book, as we know it, is ever-changing in its structure and physical composition as well as in how it is perceived in the context of other media. The Changing Book exposition will provide perspective on the continuing role of the paper book, trends in production, its preservation, and visions for the future.

Set in beautiful eastern Iowa at the height of summer, the exposition will include speakers (Mary Lynn Ritzenthaler, National Archives; John Dean, Cornell University and Chris Clarkson), panels, book exhibitions, tours and a "tent show" featuring technical demonstrations, vendors, poster sessions, food, fun and music. The exposition will offer an informal, lively ambience for discussion, entertainment and inspiration, much in the spirit of a county fair.

Professionals and students dedicated to the traditional book and its preservation in the digital age are invited to attend. Early bird registration (by June 20, 2005) provides a remarkable discount. For more information or to register call 1-800-551-9029 or check online at www.lib.uiowa.edu/book2005
