This lists any national organization on any subject (both professional and hobby groups), and the dates of each group's next annual convention. There is a good keyword index; try searching under 'EDUCATION' in the keyword index and see what is available. The database is also available electronically through the DIALOG system. You can search, for example, for associations dealing with education that have conventions coming up in Los Angeles between January and June 1990 (some high-level specificity is possible). But start with the printed directory, and see what's available. -- edm002@muvms3.bitnet,Marshall University Fred R. Reenstjerna | Sleep on, eagle forgotten, 400 Hal Greer Blvd | Under the stone.
