With apologies for cross-posting.
The Community Archive Development Group is following up last year's
successful conference by offering an opportunity for practitioners and
interested parties to get together and find out more partnerships between
professionals and community groups. 
This year's conference will be held, as before, in conjunction with and
hosted by the School of Library, Archive and Information Studies at
University College London on Wednesday 18th June. The conference is free to
attend, and lunch will be provided.
In addition to the interesting line-up of speakers led by Gerry Slater,
recently retired Director of PRONI (Public Record Office of Northern
Ireland), who will be delivering the key-note address, there will also be an
opportunity for individuals and groups to seek help and advice from an array
of experts, including Jack Latimer, Louise Ray and Jonathan Rhys-Lewis. The
full programme is given below.
