IMPORTANT ATTENDEE LIST SCAM ALERT & DISCLAIMER Please be advised that some exhibitors and attendees have been contacted by an unauthorized third party claiming to be SAA’s event & trade show manager selling attendee lists. This is a scam and not associated with SAA or CoSA in any way. SAA does not authorize any third party organizations to sell attendee lists or to contact you. If anyone calls or emails you to say that they want to sell you an attendee list, do not provide them with any personal information. Please report any such interactions to conference@archivists.org. |

Attendees will be drawn to the Hall for the Grand Opening Happy Hour on Thursday evening and three events on Friday: a Morning Coffee Break, the All-Attendee Lunch, and the hour-long Closing Break. Each exhibit booth also qualifies for two complimentary full conference registrations, so that your representatives have a chance to interact with attendees throughout the meeting—virtually and in-person!
And don’t forget to add a Expo Hall Mini-Theater Presentation!
