AMEMG 2019 Program (14 June)<\/a><\/h2>\n

Bring or Send:<\/strong>\u00a0We\u2019ll have a table near the registration and coffee area for any books published since our last meeting that participants might wish to bring for display.\u00a0In keeping with the digital humanities roundtable, we\u2019ll also have a screen on which to profile participants’ and members\u2019 digital projects. If you have a project page, blog, set of online teaching materials, or any other online resource you\u2019d like to highlight, please send to\u00a0krista.kesselring@dal.c<\/u>a\u00a0a Powerpoint slide (e.g., with a screenshot of the homepage) for display by Oct. 18.<\/p>\n

Pre-registration:\u00a0<\/strong>Conference goers are asked to register before October 18 at the\u00a0Eventbrite site<\/a>.\u00a0 The fees for the full schedule of events, including the reception and\u00a0lunch, are $50 for full-time employees and $25 for students and the partially waged. (Postdocs and retirees are asked to choose whichever price point best suits their circumstances.)\u00a0For anyone who might wish to forgo the lunch, the fees are $25 for full-time employees and $0 for students and the partially waged. If tickets in your chosen category should become listed as sold out on the Eventbrite site, please contact me directly. (Our lunch spaces are limited to 40, but I can re-allocate the tickets between groups as need be.)<\/p>\n

Registration and Meeting Spaces:<\/strong>\u00a0The registration area and our meeting rooms will be on the second floor of the New Academic Building (NAB) at the University of King\u2019s College. See \u2018K\u2019 on the\u00a0linked map<\/a>.\u00a0 On Friday evening, after the keynote, we\u2019ll head to the University Club pub at Dal; maps of the Dal campus can be found\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Accommodations:<\/strong>\u00a0The nearest hotel is the\u00a0Lord Nelson<\/a>, at 1515 South Park Street and roughly a 20 minute walk in all but a straight line to King\u2019s. (The No. 1 bus goes almost door to door and reduces the travel time to less than 10 minutes.) They have rooms for $165 + tax for us, if you call and mention the conference. That said, attendees happy to drive in or to rely on public transport might well be able to find themselves other, more affordable options further afield through online booking sites.<\/p>\n

Parking and Transportation:<\/strong>\u00a0Parking is available for free at Dal after 4:30 on Friday and all day on Saturday. Lots 1-3 on the\u00a0map<\/a>\u00a0are closest to our meeting spaces at King\u2019s. If you arrive earlier, some limited \u2018pay and display\u2019 parking is available in Lot 17 for a rate of $2\/hour. Free but limited street parking is also available nearby. For Metro Transit, the\u00a0Google Maps site\u00a0is your best option for schedules and routes.<\/p>\n
