1st Global User Group Meeting, London, UK, 12-14 October 2011 Print

group-shot-with-AlexThe 1st Global EMu User Group Meeting was held on October 12-14, 2011 at the Natural History Museum in London and was attended by over 120 people from all over the world.

The agenda was full of interesting and useful presentations including topics on IMu and Narratives. We also had a number of “showcases” giving the attendees the opportunities to look at the Live system of other EMu users. The User Group was preceded by the Natural History Special Interest Group, The Archaeology Special Interest Group and the first Conservation Special Interest Group on the 11th October.
