Good news.  We have been able to secure the free use of the new parking garage right next to the buildings we will be using for our annual meeting.  The garage is designated as WG on the attached PDF.  It is reachable from Jesup Blair Drive or King Street.

As a reminder, I am including registration information for the meeting and the preliminary agenda:

The DC ExLibris User Group Meeting will be held on December 3, 2010 at Montgomery College, Takoma Park/Silver Spring campus. This will be a great opportunity to meet, network, and exchange ideas with your colleagues.

The meeting will offer sessions on Aleph, Voyager, and SFX/MetaLib. ExLibris staff will attend and provide corporate and product updates.

Online registration is now open. Please click on the following link to register. Please register early!!!  Registration will close on November 29, 2010
