I have just discovered this site, although some of the regular contributors
are familiar to me. Glenn, your linking work on behalf of all of us is
great - for example I too found that the link to the Event Solutions Journal
and archives very useful.
Reply to Elaine McDonald,
I lecture in Event Management at RMIT University in Melbourne. Here are the
American texts that I use which should be available to you (I think Joe
Goldblatt has already linked you to most of them). I haven't listed the
Australian references I use as I doubt that they would be easily available -
apart from the recent publication by Ian which he has sent information
about.

I have also attached a subject outline for the RMIT University course. I'd
be interested in seeing an outline of the subject you teach and a list of
any interesting UK / European texts.
