Subject: NCPH Annual Conference
 
The National Council on Public History's (NCPH) 18th Annual
Conference will be held April 10-13, 1996, in Seattle, Washington,
at the Holiday Inn Crowne Plaza.  Organized around the theme
"History and the Public Interest", the conference will feature
sessions focusing on the use of new technologies in museums,
broadcast media and archives; grey literature; the status of
public history within the academy; political history; and
historical advocacy by professional and public interest groups.
There are also plans for a program track organized by the National
Park Service, with whom NCPH has joined for new collaborative
activities.  The conference schedule will also include workshops
and tours of the Seattle area.  The conference is co-sponsored
by the Pacific Northwest Historical Guild and the Northwest Oral
History Association, both of which will sponsor special sessions.
Registration details will be available at the end of January.  For more
