                        A Con Runner's Library ?
                        ========================

A lot of our work in organising INTERSECTION has been helped by access to
publications which discuss convention running like MAD III PARTY from NOREASCON
as well as any internal documents from the running of past Worldcons and large
regionals which we can get hold of.

  We have access to similar sorts of information about past British conventions
although even here our collection is not as complete as we would like but out
main problem is access to similar material from the USA (and the rest of
Europe).

If you have copies of any con running documentation at all we would be
interested to hear about it. Now is the chance to clear out that back room
that's been full of paper since MINNEAPOLIS IN 73 !

We would also be particularly interested in material on floppy disk.

If we can get a good collection together we may be able to set it up as a
reference library form SMOFCON in Jersey (the one in the English Channel) after
Easter.

If you've got any material or know of other publications similar to MAD III
PARTY we would be interested to hear from you.
