An annual meeting hosted by a member institution is held each spring. Here members have a chance to meet one another to discuss matters of mutual interest and concern, and have a unique opportunity to get an insider's view of the host institution. The yearly meetings have included lectures on the care and preservation of collections, computer systems and services, as well as talks on garden literature and botanical art. Individual programs and a business meeting are regularly complemented by site visits to neighboring gardens and historic locales. Members of the Council on Botanical and Horticultural Libraries are invited to attend CBHL's 45th Annual Meeting in 2014, to be held in Richmond, Virginia, USA. ... [Information of the supplier]

Phycologists and others interested in the algae from throughout the world are invited to participate in the 10th International Phycological Congress (IPC 10) in Orlando, Florida, 4 (Sunday) - 10 (Saturday) August 2013. This Congress continues in a tradition that began in 1982 at the first IPC in St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada. The overarching theme of IPC 10, Algae in a Changing World, recognizes the important roles of algae in a world where environmental changes are rapidly accelerating. Ultimate sponsorship of these Congresses is provided by the International Phycological Society (IPS). Societies other than the IPS have met in conjunction with most IPCs to date. The Phycological Society of America (PSA; http://www.psaalgae.org/) has committed to meet in conjunction with IPC 10.

The 24th NADS will be held on Sept. 27 - October 1, 2017 at Ohio State University’s Stone Laboratory on Gibraltar Island in Lake Erie. This small island (6.55 acres, 0.026 km²) is part of the Lake Erie Islands archipelago and located just offshore of the town of Put-in-Bay on South Bass Island (2.482 mi², 6.428 km²). Historically, Gibraltar Island was an important lookout point for Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry during his successful Battle of Lake Erie against the British fleet in the War of 1812. Stone Laboratory has been a freshwater field station with research and teaching laboratories since 1895 and has been part of The Ohio State University since 1925. Stone Laboratory, the South Bass Island Lighthouse and the Aquatic Visitors Center at Put-in-Bay have offered field-based educational programs and research opportunities in biological science to thousands of participants, see webcam here. International symposium participants will present their work in diatom research including biodiversity, evolution, ecology, systematics, biological assessment, paleolimnology, and nanotechnology. In addition to the scientific program, the meeting will include traditional NADS activities (the Scum Run and auction). We hope you will join us in Lake Erie in late September for an exciting meeting! ... [Information of the supplier]
