An "almost paperless" SEMINAR
URISA BC helped the environment by minimizing the amount of printed material handed out at the seminar. All materials (seminar program, speaker biographies, presentations abstracts, etc.) will remain available after the seminar on the URISA BC website at www.urisabc.org ..
URISA BC thanks the SPONSORS and PRESENTERS for making this event possible.
