Mia and all,<br>I didn't actually intend to post to ILAT, but I'm glad I did. There are a number of good papers which will be presented (including Mia's I'm sure) at the LSA national meetings in Alburquerque in January (5-8). I hope many people will try to attend. The SSILA (Society for the Study of Indigenous Languages ) is being held in concert with LSA that weekend as well. Our 'special session' is aimed at showcasing community work and community language specialists in this national forum.
<br>Hope others can make it! Looking forward to seeing you there, Mia!<br>Happy New Year to all!<br>Susan<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 12/27/05, <b class="gmail_sendername">Mia Kalish</b> <<a href="mailto:MiaKalish@learningforpeople.us">

<p><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">I am going to be at the conference. I'm
doing a workshop, maybe with one of my colleagues, on how to gather information
to support the kinds of revitalization materials that keep languages off museum
shelves and in the community (one of my friends from Wales dreamed up the "in the
community and off the museum shelves" metaphor. I thought it was apt.) </span></font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi all,<br>
Just to remind everyone of our special session -- I really hope we get some
attendance, given that we are the last on the list -- But I have heard from a
number of linguists who plan to stay and hear what we all have to say. There
are some guidelines for handouts on the LSA website under a link for
'paper guidelines' See <a href="http://www.lsadc.org/info/meet-annual.cfm" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.lsadc.org/info/meet-annual.cfm</a><br>
<br>
I have mentioned that part of our discussion would be devoted to how
documentation feeds into revitalization so I hope that you all give that some
thought/time. Otherwise, I'm just looking forward to an active discussion and
to finding out what everyone is up to these days! <br>
Please forward this to any other participants -- I don't have Mary Eunice's
address or Brenda's...Thanks!<br>
<br>
Best Wishes for a Happy New Year and see you all soon!<br>
