I'm resending this earlier email. Something seems to have happened to it and not everyone received it. See you Saturday.
Hi y'all,
Remember that we are meeting this Saturday March 2, in our regular place at the U of W, room UW 2B23.
Send me any agenda items and I'll try to get an agenda out to you. Our main goal, as determined at the end of the last meeting, is to carefully go over everything and make sure we have all of our bases covered.
Thanks,
Jim

Hi Natalie,
This all sounds very interesting and I'm sure we can work out something. There are potentially 6 foot tables available in the publishers' display area. Would that suit your needs?

Subject: RE: Strike digital exhibit
Hi Jim,
I'm not sure if more discussion had followed on potentially having a table or space to allow for promotion of the Strike digital exhibit I'm currently working on with the University of Manitoba Libraries and the Association for Manitoba Archives, but many of Mayor Gray's records as they relate to the Strike ended up at the University of Calgary Archives and they've reached out to us and expressed interest in also promoting a digital collection they're working on featuring Mayor Gray's records. If there is an opportunity to promote digital collections and exhibits at the Strike conference, the University of Calgary Archives asked that I pass along their interest in jointly promoting their collection alongside our digital exhibit.
Thanks,

Subject: Strike digital exhibit
Hello,
I'm currently working on a digital exhibit commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Winnipeg General Strike. We're currently developing a poster for both the digital exhibit (a collaboration between the University of Manitoba Libraries and the Association for Manitoba Archives), as well as a physical exhibit held at the University of Manitoba Archives & Special Collections. Once a promotional poster is finalized, I was wondering if it would be possible to send it to conference organizers so that copies may be posted or made available at the conference. Also, if there would be other opportunities to promote the content at the conference (e.g., possibly have a table set-up where we could have a chance to talk about/promote the digital exhibit with conference attendees), please let me know.
Thank you,

Dear all:
I was talking to Molly McCracken from CCPA and apparently they would very much appreciate it if we would sponsor their event with Boots Riley on May 11. You all probably recall that we decided we couldn't partner with the CCPA on the event because the only date he could come is May 11 - one day too late for us. But Molly tells me that they would benefit significantly from our sponsorship, which would involve us formally becoming a sponsor and supporting them in-kind (they would also accept monetary support, but I am guessing we can afford only in-kind). They are about to launch the event, so if we are able to sponsor, it would help if we could tell them soon.
Is there support for this among the committee?
Best,
julie

Here's the latest word from UW Conference Services, regarding classrooms, an IT person, and water for speakers.
I have made note of the additional classroom rental for when I am able to book those rooms.
As for the Saturday, because the day is shorter it is more cost efficient to have a technician stay so that has already been included. I will put together a number for you if they were to stay for the entire conference as well.
We do not have water pitchers but Diversity would easily be able to do water service throughout the conference for you.
Hi everyone,
The next meeting of the Winnipeg General Strike Conference Committee is this coming Saturday, February 9, at 1:30 p.m., Room 2B23, University of Winnipeg. I didn't have Juanita's email, so please let her know as well.
I would like to go over everything carefully, to ensure that we have everything planned and accounted for. Make lists, please...
Thanks,
Jim
