McCue.

Subject: [ARLIS-L] ARLIS/SE annual conference in Asheville
> From Nov. 7 to 10, 2002, the Southeast Chapter of ARLIS/NA (ARLIS/SE) met
> for our annual conference in Asheville, North Carolina. Special kudos go
> out to Moira Steven and her planning committee for the fantastic job they
> did putting this conference together. We were fortunate there was a late
> fall, and so we were treated to beautiful panoramic views of the mountains
> covered in autumn leaves and exceptionally sunny weather. Asheville is an
> exciting little city which, despite its small population, has some
> wonderful surprises in terms of art galleries and architectural wonders.
>
> We visited the Biltmore Estate, the largest privately owned home in the US
> (owned by the descendants of the Vanderbilt family), and had a unique
> opportunity to visit their archives and have a special tour "behind the
red
> rope" of George Vanderbilt's private library of nearly 23,000 books. We
> also were given a guided tour of the historic arts & crafts style Grove
> Park Inn, the Biltmore Industries arts and crafts workshops and galleries,
> and historical walking tours of the city. We were fortunate to have guest
> speakers on the art world of Tryon, South Carolina by Frank Thomson and
> issues related to archiving by Frank McCue. Our own ARLIS members Lee
> Sorensen (Duke), Sarah McCleskey (Clemson), and Rachel Kuhn (NCSU) also
> gave excellent presentations on image databases being utilized at their
> institutions. We are extremely appreciative of the University of North
> Carolina-Asheville Ramsey Library for the use of their facilities for our
> speakers and for providing refreshments and hospitality while there.
>
> At the end of our business meeting, we also presented our annual LoPresti
> Awards for art book publishing in the South. (A separate release on this
> will follow soon.) We held elections for our new officers and
> appointed/reappointed individuals for special
> appointments. Congratulations to the following who will begin their new
> roles in 2003!
