* Call for Speakers for Congress 2018
We’ve now issued our Call for Speakers for the 15th Australasian Congress on Genealogy & Heraldry, which we are hosting in Sydney from 9-12 March 2018. You’ll find the details at www.congress2018.org.au and you’ve got until 31 October to put in your proposal to present a lecture or workshop at Congress, and to encourage others to do so. If you’ve heard a wonderful speaker and would like to see them on the program let us know (info@congress2018.org.au) and we’ll make sure we alert them to the Call for Speakers. Congress is a great vehicle to not only have presentations from ‘old favourites’, but it’s also the chance to showcase some new talent too.
