Tools for Humanists, 1989

a software and hardware fair held in conjunction with
The Dynamic Text
6-9 June 1989

Schedule
(1 May 1989)

`Tools for Humanists, 1989' is a large software and hardware fair
for scholars in the humanities. It is being held in concert with
`The Dynamic Text' conference at the University of Toronto, from
2:30 p.m., Tuesday 6 June, to 5:30 p.m., Friday 9 June. It will
feature slightly over 50 scheduled demonstrations on
approximately 40 workstations of various kinds (IBM, Macintosh,
Sun, NeXT). In addition 2 IBMs and 2 Macintoshes will be kept
available throughout the duration of the fair for unscheduled
demonstrations. Special talks are also planned.

Each day of the fair is divided into three periods: (1) morning,
10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.; (2) afternoon, 2:30 to 5:30 p.m.; and
(3) evening, 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. Note, however, that the first day
of the fair will have no morning period, and the last day no
evening period. During the evenings, the fair will be open to the
general public as well as to conference attendees. For those not
attending the conference, admission to the fair will cost $5 on
each occasion.

As part of the registration materials, attendees will receive a
copy of the comprehensive guidebook to the fair. This guidebook
will contain accurate descriptions of the software and hardware
on display. It will be available to non-registrants at a
reasonable cost.

The exhibition room is situated in a prominent place, between the
main lecture theatre and the rooms where the breakout sessions
are to be held. A rough diagram of the room will be found below.

Please note that the schedule is subject to change without
notice. Comments and corrections are welcome. May errors be
greeted with forgiveness.
