Apologies for cross postings.
The azaleas are popping, the redbuds are in their finest
attire, and the
dogwoods are lacy jewels at the edge of the woods. It must
be spring in
Chapel Hill! What a great reason to visit North Carolina in
April.
DigCCurr2007 is another excellent reason. There are just a
few seats left
for DigCCurr2007, so register today! We will host
approximately 100 speakers
who will focus of what digital curators do and what they
need to know.
