I'd like to add my appreciation to Nedda Ahmed and the advisory team for creating an attractive and functional new edition of the ARLIS/NA website. I believe our first edition premiered during my term as ARLIS/NA president and I served as one of the first webmasters. It's not an easy job! In exploring my stash of computer stuff, I came across a zip disk that holds our first online conference proceedings (Miami '96). These will soon be added to the ARLIS/NA site. For now, you can see them at http://libweb.uoregon.edu/aaa/abstracts96/ In browsing through Miami's program, one can see our initial conversations about the internet, digital imagery, and intellectual property rights. We've come a long way since then--at least technologically. Certainly our website keeps improving. Thanks again, Nedda, and appreciation also goes to Sam Duncan for a sleek and sophisticated conference website. - Ed ------------------ Edward H.
