ATOD Policy & Information Technology in an Era of Change: 32nd Annual SALIS Conference


The 32nd SALIS Conference will meet in New York City on April 27-30, 2010, hosted by David at the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University. Conference attendees will stay at The New York Helmsley Hotel, near the conference venue at CASA, within walking distance of Times Square, Grand Central Station and the United Nations, and close to the Broadway Theater District and Rockefeller Center.

We have an exciting lineup of speakers from the worlds of ATOD research and policy, Library practice, and SALIS members from the US, Canada and Europe, plus extra activities and a cornucopia of sightseeing and cultural opportunities. We hope to see you soon in New York City!
