First planning mtg. for U.Va. higher ed web conference, Spring ‘09

The first planning meeting for a Spring ‘09 higher ed web design/development conference at U.Va. is set for next Wednesday (full details below). If you missed the earlier email several weeks ago announcing this effort, you can read it online. Jared Spool, of UIE, will be with us on speakerphone to discuss presenter possibilities for proposed conference sessions (thanks to everyone who contributed ideas to the proposal) and help us formulate some next steps. We’ll also start mulling over logistics like securing a funding model, booking space, catering, publicity, setup/tear-down etc.

If you’d like to be a part of the planning but can’t make it to this first meeting, I’ve set up a UVaCollab site and email list at UVaWebConf09 at collab.itc.virginia.edu. All future announcements and online discussion regarding the conference will happen there, so feel free to join if you’d like to keep tabs on the progress. The name of the UVaCollab site is “UVa Web Conf ‘09″, and it’s listed in the public directory.

Hope to see you there!

First planning meeting and discussion with Jared Spool
When: Wednesday, November 12, 1:00 - 2:00 p.m.
Where: In the Byrd Room, Harrison/Small Special Collections building, U.Va.
