[OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION] DIG Hack-a-way date: September 12

[Kathy Lussier]

Hi all,

During last week's DIG meeting we agreed that the New England area 
cluster will meet at C/W MARS in Worcester, Massachusetts. We will begin 
around 9:30 a.m. EDT and will end at about 5 p.m. EDT.

For those who are joining us in Worcester, the address for C/W MARS is:
67 Millbrook St.
Suite 201
Worcester

The parking lot in front of the building is usually pretty full by 9:30 
a.m., but there is a parking lot across the street that has spots 
available throughout the day. You should enter the building through the 
South entrance (the one closest to Millbrook St.).

For lunch, we can carpool to some nearby restaurants or we can order 
something in. We'll see what everyone wants to do when the time comes.

If you are planning to attend in person, please e-mail me directly so 
that we can have a count of who will be attending.

Feel free to let me know if you have any questions!

Kathy
