Conference facilities tour
March 14, 2012 | Comments Off on Conference facilities tour
The Book Cultures, Book Events conference team toured the facilities at Stirling University yesterday. Day One of the conference will be held in the comfortable cinema in the macrobert arts centre, with regular tea breaks and a reception in the centre’s Sub Bar at 7.oo. With particular thanks to conference sponsors Routledge, Edinburgh University Press, Combined Academic Publishers, Intellect Books and Polity press for the reception! The centre is a well established arts venue and a lively cultural events space in which to discuss the past, present and future of book events. Day Two will take place in the Iris Murdoch centre – still on campus, this is a modern conference centre with stunning views around the what the university website calls “the most picturesque univversity campus in Europe”. A welcome burst of last-minute registrations means we have a strong turnout for what promises to be a fascinating and enjoyable conference – which is in itself, a book event.
