Since the conclusion of the fantastic CAC Annual Conference
in Vancouver, we in Ottawa have been busy bringing the wealth
of resources in our city to bear on the planning of the
annual conference to be held here in our Nation’s
Capital in 2010.
DATES
The 2010 conference will be held beginning Thursday June
10th and ending Saturday June 12th.
For those interested, please note that the 2010 conference
has been timed to take place in the week after the 25th
annual conference of the
Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections
(SPNHC). The SPNHC conference will also be taking place
in Ottawa in 2010 and will be hosted by the Canadian
Museum of Nature
LOCATION
The conference venue will be the
Library and Archives Canada &building at 395 Wellington
Street in downtown Ottawa. This location is just steps from
the Parliament Buildings and many of Ottawa’s
major cultural institutions and attractions , providing
attendees with ample opportunity to tour institutional conservation
labs and other locations of interest.
