Greetings all...

The next Off the Record deadline is October 31st, 2000 - ONLY 2 WEEKS AWAY -
and AAO members need to hear from YOU!

Please give some thought to your next submission and send it in as soon as
possible... there's no point in postponing it because the deadline is not
moving and submissions received after the deadline will not be included in
this issue!

*** SUBMISSION TIPS ***

Please submit institutional/personal announcements regarding changes in
positions, new grants, boasts and beefs to "News from the Field". We
especially would like to hear from "the lone arrangers" trying to solve
problems in small archives in small communities across the province.

Secondly, we welcome submissions on current/upcoming archives exhibits,
problems with exhibits (lighting, transportation), solutions to problems,
etc.


1.  Send your submissions directly to our OTR editors, Yuri Shimpo and Barb
Taylor (cc'd on this note).

2.  To cut down on the prep time needed by the editors, and to further
reduce the delay in getting OTR out the door, please imbed your item within
the body of an email note (attachments are very temperamental). If you want
anything inside a box or set off in some special way, it is best to send a
camera-ready copy so they can scan it, and drop it in. As with all
volunteers, our editors do have lots of other stuff on their plates!

Yuri & Barb look forward to hearing from you and will be happy to pass on
your news.

Regards,
Siân Madsen
AAO Communications & Chapter Liaison
