Dear fellow ATEGers,

This year's ATEG conference--the 22nd since our founding in 1989--will be held at Prince George's Community College in Largo, Maryland.  Please log on to the ATEG website to find the conference registration form.  The dates are July 29 and 30; the registration deadline is July 22.

A special part of the program this year, one that you won't want to miss, is a field trip to the Library of Congress on Friday afternoon.

I'll be the co-keynoter (alongwith Pam Dykstra).  You might be interested to know that I was also the first keynoter back in 1989; that was the meeting where we decided to call ourselves an official group.  At that time, the A of ATEG (which we organized on that day) was Association; it was several years later, when the NCTE decided that we could become official, that the A came to stand for Assembly, an official Assembly of NCTE.

Our conferences are special--small and personal.  Everyone attends all of the presentations.  This one, on the outskirts of a very busy Capital city, will be especially splendid.

Please make every effort to join us.

Martha
