Hello all, I doubt I can make the MGSA Symposium in October in Atlanta, but would very much like to help revive the momentum we had going in the first decade of the 2000s, especially after the 2006 conference at the Gennadius Library in Athens. I guess the financial crisis in Greece (and the US bubble-bursts), the decline of US institutions' funding for conference and acquisitions-related travel, and the retirement of several bibliographers/specialists for Modern Greece in the US all contributed to the loss of the momentum we had earlier seemed to be developing. LC is still continuing to collect Modern Greek materials, with a fairly comprehensive approval plan for monographs and actually some new serial money for additional 2016 subscriptions. For those who are able to go to the October MGSA Symposium, it would be great to get a report on any library, archival, or bibliographic-related papers or discussions. Best to all, Harry From: cohsl-list-bounces(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu [mailto:cohsl-list-bounces@lists.fas.harvard.edu] On Behalf Of Lesage, Rhea Karabelas Sent: Wednesday, August 12, 2015 4:14 PM To: CoHSL-list(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu Subject: [Cohsl-list] MGSA Symposium Dear all, The 2015 MGSA Symposium will take place October 15-18, 2015 * Georgia State University * Atlanta, GA. Is anyone planning to go? If we have a critical mass, perhaps we could plan a meeting? It would be great to reconnect. The MGSA Library Committee has been on hiatus for a couple of years. Is there any interest in resuscitating it?
