The New York State/Ontario Chapter of Music Library Association is pleased to announce the program for the 2001 Annual Meeting, to be held at Syracuse University on October 12-13, 2001. We welcome both members of the chapter and nonmembers to attend.
This year's program contains many interesting sessions, both for those interested in music librarianship and those interested in archival resources as well. The Belfer Audio Archive tour and talk, as well as presentations on Saturday, time appropriately to help celebrate Archives Week.
Please note that there is no registration fee. We are thankful that Syracuse University will be covering the cost of parking, refreshments, and the Continental breakfast on Saturday. Our special thanks to Carole Vidale for all of her hard work on the local arrangements and program.
Those seeking accommodations should note that hotel reservations should be made as early as possible because of other conferences and activities happening at the same time in Syracuse making rooms more in demand. Some suggested hotels are given below.
Those needing to park on campus should be sure to indicate to Carole Vidale that they will need parking authorization for Friday (Saturday is no problem). For any logistics questions, you may also contact Carole at (315) 443-9779 or email her at cfvidali@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Please return your registration form located at the end of this message by September 25th if you plan to attend the Sweet Charity drama performance, and by October 6th otherwise.
Feel free to contact us with any questions, and for more information about the organization, our website is available at http://www.fredonia.edu/nyso/
