CGSSD Meeting on Saturday - Barbara Renick

The Computer Genealogy Society of San Diego (CGSSD) program meeting is this Saturday, 15 August. Here is the email notice sent out by Linda:

The Computer Genealogy Society of San Diego meets on Saturday, August 15, 2009 from 9:00 am to noon.

9:00 - User groups for Legacy, Macintosh, and a Special User Group on Digital Imaging and Scanning

10:00 - A break and refreshments

10:15 - Announcements followed by Program

"On-line: How You Get There Does Make a Difference" by Barbara Renick

This lecture provides examples from a variety of different types of websites where initial searches failed, but accessing the site in a different way or making the search in a different way brings positive results.

Barbara is a professional genealogist and a nationally known speaker and researcher. She is a regular volunteer and instructor at the Regional Family History Center in Orange, California.

We meet at the Robinson Auditorium complex on the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) campus in La Jolla. From North Torrey Pine Road turn at Pangea Drive into UCSD. Free parking is available in the parking garage on the left; use any A, B, or S space. Signs will mark directions to our meeting room. Please refer to our website www.cgssd.org; or the Graduate School of International Relations and Pacific Studies website http://irps.ucsd.edu/about/how-to-find-us.htm for driving directions and a map.

I look forward to this meeting and hearing Barbara. I won't tweet it, though! I will blog about it! My biggest quandary is whether to attend the Legacy group meeting or go to the SIG on Digital Imaging or Scanning.
