Genealogists, particularly those interested in the use of technology, will
meet in St. Louis from 22-24 January 2004 for NGS GENTECH 2004.
Since 1993, GENTECH has been THE national conference for people interested
in GENealogy and TECHnology. Now, as a new division of the National
Genealogical Society, NGS GENTECH will sponsor conferences that continue to
meet the needs of advanced users and those new to using technology in
research.
Each year the conference has featured a panel of nationally known speakers
who have addressed themselves to every aspect of the use of computer and
Internet technology to support genealogical research - to meet the needs of
advanced users as well as those just beginning to use technology in their
research.
This year there will be a Librarians' Pre-Conference at NGS GENTECH on
Thursday, January 22, 2004 which will feature talks by Cyndi Howells, Ruth
Ann Hager and Matt Helm. Details of this special Pre-Conference are at:

In addition to the Librarian's Pre-Conference, Thursday will feature
two-hour tutorials on four important topics:
* Building a Family Genealogy Web site
* Mapping Workshop
* Federal Web Sites
* Digital Photography.
