Dear all, I have noticed that a number of users of this webmail are not actually members of GCG. I would like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to consider joining the group. A year's subscription is currently just £15 (UK), £18 (non-UK) and there is even an optional £10 rate for the unwaged. Members receive reduced rates at our meetings, workshops and training sessions, including those held jointly with other groups. You would also receive our twice yearly journal 'Geological Curator', as well as our newsletter 'Coprolite'. For a membership form, please follow this link to our website : http://www.geocurator.org/join/join.htm Please don't forget our forthcoming meeting and AGM on 2nd/3rd December in Birmingham City Museum and Art Gallery. http://www.geocurator.org/meet/meet.htm The theme of this meeting is 'Writing Effective Grant Proposals for Collections Projects' - a very useful topic at the present. We are also celebrating our 40th Anniversary by holding an evening meal in Birmingham on 2nd December. All welcome !
