I wanted to remind everyone that the deadline for paper proposals for the
Virginia Forum is October 2, 2006.  The Call for Papers is below.

The second Virginia Forum will convene at the Library of Virginia, in
Richmond, on 13–14 April 2007. The Virginia Forum offers an opportunity for
exchanges of ideas among scholars, teachers, archivists, librarians, museum
curators, and all those interested in Virginia history and culture. The
Virginia Forum welcomes proposals for presentations on all topics in
Virginia history, but the 400th anniversary year of 2007 offers a special
opportunity for reconsidering large and significant themes in Virginia's
history and its place in national and international history. The committee
welcomes proposals for individual papers or complete panel sessions, panel
discussions, workshops, poster sessions, or electronic presentations. Send a
one-page proposal, along with a brief vita of the presenter(s) to the chair
of the program committee, Dr. Larissa M. Smith, Department of History,
Longwood University at [log in to unmask] Proposal deadline: 2 October 2006.
