++ Pre-conference workshops announced

Based on feedback from our previous events, we have carefully selected
three pre-conference workshops which will run on Wednesday 3 December.
Running for the whole day at the conference venue, all the workshops
will be hands-on practical / interactive sessions run by industry
experts and designed to develop skills and knowledge on a particular
topic:

Workshop 1 - An introduction to the world of tactile graphics.
Workshop 2 - From real objects to tactile graphics: Designing, making
and using simple but effective tactile resources for young children.
Workshop 3 - Advanced tactile graphic design workshop: for those with
some experience wishing to develop their skills.

To ensure workshop delegates get the most from these sessions, places on
the workshops will be strictly limited, so please book early to
guarantee your place.  For more information on the workshops, please
visit the Pre-Conference Workshops pages:

++ Don't forget - the Call for Abstracts is still open (closes 25 July
2008)

We've already received many really great abstracts, but there is still
time for you to submit an abstract to present or exhibit at Tactile
Graphics 2008. This is a great opportunity to share what you are doing
with international colleagues who are equally passionate about the
subject.

Further details, along with the abstract submission form can be found on
the website.

++ Finally - lots more information on the website

The website has recently been updated with lots of useful information
about the event. Enquiries from our previous conferences has enabled us
to build quite a comprehensive "Frequently Asked Questions" page, but if
we've not already answered your particular question, please don't
hesitate to contact us and we'll be happy to assist you.
