Fellow Members of the RM LISTSERV,
Over the years, hundreds of LISTSERVE members have attended the MER - The
National Conference on Managing Electronic Records.
This year's MER will be held on May 23-25 in Chicago - with over 400 people
attending.
The MER is the conference that so many LISTSERV members have evaluated as
"the best" every year for incisively addressing the operational, legal and
technical issues of managing electronic records management issues
As detailed below, MER registrations are way ahead of any previous year and,
as a result, hotel rooms are tight.
If you are planning to attend the MER, I trust you will find the following
information helpful. NOW is the time to make your hotel reservation and
register for the conference.
As Co-Chair, I look forward to personally welcoming you to the MER in just a
few weeks.

MER 2005 CONFERENCE
Registrations for the thirteenth National Conference on Managing
Electronic Records (MER) "are at record setting levels" according
to the Conference Co-Chair, Robert F. Williams.
Because the number of early registration is over 200% higher than any prior
year, this year's MER conference soon will be sold out." Williams advises
everyone who has not yet registered, "act promptly to avoid being
disappointed".
This year's MER program features:
- 36 outstanding speakers
- 27 informative sessions
- 5 in-depth all day pre-conference tutorials
- 2 special keynote addresses
- 13 leading solution providers
There also will be three of the MER's highly successful Networking
Receptions as well as problem-solving exhibitor suites.
In addition to their conference notebook, every registrant will receive a
complimentary audio CD of all the sessions - so every attendee will benefit
from all the information provided in every session
Already the conference hotel is sold out, but there is hotel space set aide
for the MER within a block - call (800) 200-7667 for hotel assistance.
Williams said "three key factors are driving the record attendance: first,
this is the only national conference exclusively focused on the lifecycle
management of electronic records, second, the MER's superb history of
contestant quality [RFW1] <> [RFW1] and third, the management of electronic
records is important to C-level management." Williams continued, "They want
to mitigate their organization's risks. Accordingly, they know they must
proactively address electronic records management.
