Just a reminder that this Wednesday (4/17) is the IA Cocktail hour in Chapel
Hill. Please join us to discuss the ASIST IA Summit that took place in
Baltimore in March and the role of research in advancing Information
Architecture and other User Experience based disciplines.

Please contact me directly (samantha at baileysorts.com) if you'd like to
coordinate rides from Charlotte.

Thanks.

have
