If you’ve attended professional conferences before, you know the excitement that comes from hearing about innovative approaches to archives and records activities, from exploring new ideas, and from meeting colleagues and renewing friendships. In Austin in August, you’ll take that experience to a new level as we combine the knowledge, wisdom, and interests of our members into one meeting. If you’ve never attended an annual meeting of CoSA or SAA – or haven’t joined us in recent years – you’ll find a broad array of opportunities to learn, to explore, to collaborate, and to celebrate the world of archives and records. Our dynamic Program Committee has created an education package that both emphasizes our common interests and presents topics that rep- resent our unique concerns. As we all deal with the special challenges of “living in interesting times,” what better time to reflect on the many ways in which we might collaborate, while at the same time investing in advancing our own knowledge and skills? It’s all about sustainability! In addition to 76 education sessions and five professional poster presentations from which to choose, you’ll find: In-depth pre-conference programs that give you direct access to experts in the field. Special-interest group meetings that put you in touch with colleagues who understand your daily challenges. Open forums to continue discussion of “Protocols for Native American Archival Materials” (a document that challenges many aspects of traditional archival practice and has vast implications for archival interaction with other “under-documented” communities) and of accreditation of archives education programs. The Exhibit Hall, which provides an unparalleled opportunity to talk with our industry partners, express your ideas and opinions, and learn about what’s new in the field. A host of networking opportunities, including a reception at Austin’s monument to sustainability, the Long Center. Our annual business meetings, the Career Center, the Bookstore, and so much more…. And because we don’t believe in “all work and no play,” the Host Committee has lined up a wonderful itinerary of repository tours and open houses and has created a blog – Austin Is for Archivists (at www.archives2009.org) – that will introduce you to the many delights of our host city…. Join us in August – and let’s all help to “Keep Austin Weird”! David Haury Frank Boles President, 2008-2009 President, 2008-2009 Council of State Archivists Society of American Archivists 4 Come and go BATTY in AUSTIN ’09 What a response we have received! As if in anticipation of the exciting changes and challenges we now face, members submitted a record number of program proposals. Abstracts spanned traditional and provocative topics, including online communities and culture shock, documenting under-represented communities, videogame archiving, whistle blower ethics, cultural privacy, replevin, social networking, the evolving perspectives on records and non-records, as well as “The Light, Literary, and Lascivious Side of Archives”! Many sessions combine the meeting theme and sponsoring organizations’ strategic Between April and October, Austin’s famous colony of Mexican free-tailed bats departs nightly from the Ann Richards priorities, specifically SAA’s Technology, Diversity, and Public Awareness/Advocacy sponsor or endorser of SAA.

You will see there is much on this I AM History program that speaks to the idea that relevant history is inclusive history. And all of us will experience Austin’s own breadth of people and culture in the tours, evening and offsite events, the new “Texas Track” of sessions, and in our own wanderings around town. Program Committee Chair Dina Bailey and Host Committee Co-chairs Laura Casey and Margaret Koch coordinated hours of toil by their committees to create this adventurous program.
