    This is a great opportunity for us here in San Antonio! If you want to smuibt a proposal, remember that your librarian is here to help you with your literature reviews! Just stop by my office at 111E Main Campus or make an appointment. These conferences are wonderful places to meet new colleagues, learn about new techniques and theories, and to have a lot of fun with interesting people. Deirdre
