Nothing Could Be Finer Than to Be at East Carolina!
We invite you to East Carolina University (ECU) on October 9-11, 2008 for SEMLA's annual meeting. ECU, the third largest North Carolina state university, is located in Greenville, NC, a major industrial and economic center for the north-central coastal plain region of eastern North Carolina situated 85 miles east of the state capitol. This is a year of firsts for the annual meeting—the first time it will be held at ECU, and the first time it will open with a preconference workshop, Music in Libraries: Just the Basics
Annual meeting participants will stay at the Best Western Suites of Greenville, just two miles from the ECU campus. Conference activities will be held at both ECU's Joyner Library and the newly-renovated A.J. Fletcher Music Center, which also houses the Music Library. The program will feature an eclectic mix of presentations, with topics ranging from music of the North Carolina Outer Banks to embedded music librarianship. |

The Friday evening banquet will take advantage of eastern North Carolina's idyllic October weather by opening with an outdoor cocktail hour followed by an eastern North Carolina Pig Pickin'. Those interested in a Saturday afternoon trip back in time will travel to nearby New Bern for a tour of Tryon Palace and Gardens, the first permanent capitol of the Colony of North Carolina and home of the first Royal Governor, William Tryon, and his family.
