6th Australasian User Group Meeting, Adelaide, 5-6 September 2007 |
 |
 The 6th Australasian EMu User Group Meeting was held in Adelaide, Australia, on 6-7 September at the Art Gallery of South Australia, and was attended by 44 EMu users. Consensus is that this was another successful EMu meeting. The program and topics, presentations, and the venue itself drew particularly favourable feedback. Day Two commenced with the ever popular Q&A session, an opportunity for users to pose any EMu related question to KE.
Two guest speakers made presentations: Darren Peacock, Director of Sweet Technology Pty. Ltd., spoke on "Trends in using collections information on the web", and Myra Pastuch from ICS (International Conservation Services) discussed "The use of the import tool at OPH/ICS".
On both days, following the formal sessions, attendees were invited to participate in tours of local institutions: the Art Gallery of South Australia, the Migration Museum and the South Australian Museum.
The 2008 User Group Meeting will be held at the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, Wellington, on Tuesday 9 and Wednesday 10 September 2008.
