ACH Sessions at the 2000 MLA Convention


The Association for Computers and the Humanities is sponsoring two sessions at the 2000 convention of the Modern Language Association, in Washington, DC from 27 through 30 December.

We also offer a guide to all computer-related sessions at the convention.

Although the 2000 convention is now in the past, this information will remain available, as a record of what went on. Similar information for many other years is available via the main page on ACH MLA sessions.
