[IUG] IUG 2006 Program Interest Survey

["Seeman, Corey" <cseeman at bus dot umich dot edu>]

Greetings & Happy Holidays:

I am very please to announce the opening of the initial IUG 2006 Program
Interest Survey.  The survey will be closed on Monday January 16th (in
the evening) so we can review the data at ALA Midwinter.  You will find
the survey here:

About the Survey:
The IUG Program Committee is conducting the initial IUG 2006 Program
Interest Survey. We need you to fill out the survey to let us know which
programs you are most likely to attend. We will use this information to
put together a preliminary schedule and see which programs to offer as
repeats. Filling out the survey is *not* a commitment to attend any
given session, or even attend IUG. There is no limit as to how many
folks from an institution may vote - anyone who
thinks they may attend the conference is eligible to vote. We will
conduct a second survey in mid-February once we have developed the
preliminary schedule.

We are following the trend from recent years of having fewer repeated
sessions, so it is very important for you to participate, even if you
are not sure that you are attending (although why on earth would you not
be heading to Denver next May!)

NOTE: 
IUG and Innovative sessions are combined on this form. Innovative
sessions are indicated with an * and the (III Session) notation after
the title.   Sessions proposed by IUG members have two additional pieces
of information after the title. First, it shows the audience level
(beginner, intermediate, advanced, or all users) and then the format
(forum or presentation). 

Again, you can find the survey form at:
