This message is being posted to several mailing lists. Kindly excuse cross postings. --------------------------- This is to inform the potential participants to the XXIII IATLIS National Conference (IATLIS-2006), being organized by the Department of Library & Information Science, Punjabi University, Patiala (Punjab) from 23-25 November 2006. The invitation and call for papers for this conference has been posted on several national and international mailing lists. We are receiving encouraging response from LIS professionals in India and abroad for participation in the conference. In view of this, there is going to be fierce competition for accommodation. The intending participants are requested to confirm their participation, need for accommodation, and send their registration fee to the Organizing Secretary latest by 04 November 2006. This will help us in making arrangements for lodging of participants. It will be very difficult for us to arrange accommodation for those participants whose registration fee and confirmation for participation is received by the Organizing Secretary after 04 November 2006. In that case, participants will have to arrange for accommodation on their own.
