ARLIS DC/MD/VA members: if you would like to "cover" these events for the
chapter newsletter, we would love to hear from you! I'm hoping to produce
an interesting issue sometime after the Vancouver conference. Please
consider sharing your adventures at home or afield, for all to savor.
E-mail preferred, but not mandatory!
With thanks from your humble editor,
