Dear AoiR-ites: The book publishing room promises to be very strong at this year's conference. Please help support our conference (and your publishers) by responding to the note below. Francophone authors are especially encouraged to reply, and with help from working/steering committee member Eric George (U of Ottawa) we will translate this note soon. It would be very helpful if you could also directly request that your publishers support our conference with a donation. Be sure to inform us if you are doing this, and contact aoir@ecommons.net for details. We are looking for sponsors for the Welcome reception, coffee breaks and much more. We also plan to call for book launches to coincide with the conference, and web sites or projects. Let us know if we can showcase your research work, and let us see how this might help the conference. Cheers, Liss Jeffrey, PhD Conference chair. Dear Colleague, This year's International Conference of the Association of Internet Researchers, coming up October 16-19, 2003 in Toronto, will include a book exhibit specially organized by the LIBRARY OF SOCIAL SCIENCE. The book exhibit will bring together recent and significant titles from the major publishers providing a picture of the "state of the art" in the field. It will contribute substantially to the intellectual value and excitement of our conference. If you are an author, this is an excellent venue to promote your ideas and writings to leaders in the field. Library of Social Science and the Association of Internet Researchers seek your input to assist in developing a comprehensive collection of titles encompassing the full range of topics on the current status and future of the Internet, and on the implications of online information and communication systems on science, business, law, medicine, politics, education and interpersonal relations. If you are an AUTHOR and wish to have your book included in the display, or if you wish to recommend titles for inclusion in the exhibit, please respond by e-mail to MeiHaChan@cs.com or fax to 413-832-8145 providing the following information: (1) The title(s) of the book(s) and date(s) of publication.

Please be sure to include your own name, telephone number and e-mail address with the information that you send to us. Please respond to this e-mail or fax now so that we can begin work to assure that the book(s) you have authored or suggested are included in the display. Thank you very much.
