2:00-4:30 pm: Presentation and reception at the Arno Nowatny building, headquarters for the Center for American History with hosts Don Carleton and Patrick Cox. Note that the Nowatny building is the oldest structure (1859) on the UT Austin campus and served as General Custer’s HQ during Reconstruction. Both the setting and the gracious hospitality offer a unique experience for CPR members and anyone managing political collections.

5:30-7:30 pm: CPR Business Meeting. Location TBA.
Program: “Gov Docs in Motion: What You Don’t Know Can Hurt You and Your Collections” This panel discussion will focus on the rapidly changing world of government documents, the need for collaborative appraisal, and the synergies of partnerships. This is also a call for collaborative models of gov docs and archival partnerships – online, offline, grants, instruction design and beyond. Audience participation encouraged!
Panelists: Cass Hartnett, GODORT Chair, Gov Docs and Women’s Studies Librarian, University of Washington; Kate Cruickshank, Political Papers Specialist, Indiana University; Leigh McWhite, Political Papers Archivist and Assistant Professor, University of Mississippi.
