     VALA2010 Conference: Connections, Content, Conversations
              ***Call for Papers***
           Please feel free to pass on this message.

Dear Colleague,
 
Online submission of abstracts for VALA2010 is now open for people
across Australia and internationally. Check out the details of the Call
for Papers and submit your abstract by 30 April 2009.  As you will see,
VALA is looking for papers on a wide range of subjects, so this could be
your opportunity to present your latest research or experience to the
delegates at VALA2010.  Or if you know of other people who are doing
work that may be of interest, direct them to the Call for Papers too. 
And there's a bonus: there is one discounted registration available per
paper accepted for presentation at the Conference.    
 
Remember that VALA papers for publication are due to be submitted before
the end of September in order to begin the peer-review process, during
which you have the opportunity to update the paper as events and
technologies unfold.   And at the conference you are asked to talk to
your paper, which means you can be up to the minute with the latest in
your field.

So  go to http://www.vala.org.au/conf2010.htm  and submit online now!

 
With the theme of  Connections, Content, Conversations, VALA2010 will
take place at the new Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (on the
other side of the river) from Tuesday 9 February to Thursday 11 February
2010.  Note that we have again left Monday and Friday for associated
events, meetings or workshops - contact the VALA Conference Office at
info at wsm.com.au if you are interested in holding a workshop or
associated event.
 
The Main Announcement and Registration Brochure will be available in
August 2009 - contact the VALA Conference Office at info at wsm.com.au if
you would like to be added to the list to receive a copy.  Remember, you
and your organisation will be able to get best value for money by being
full members of VALA and paying for your registrations by 30 November
2009, so make your budget plans for the rest of this year accordingly!
 
And if you know a vendor you would like to see at the trade exhibition,
the sponsorship and exhibition proposal is also now available - follow
