METM 08: Communication Support Across the Disciplines

September 11 - 13, 2008, Split, Croatia

Through panel discussions, presentations, plenary sessions and workshops, METM 08 will promote knowledge-building and networking among editors, translators and other English language supporters who work in the Mediterranean area. In 2008, symposia are planned on multilingual and other types of publication from non-anglophone contexts. Presentation categories encompass research, promising practices and knowledge updates. We are considering proposals that will add practical and theoretical range to the program.

The program can be found at www.metmeetings.org/?section=metm08_program.
