GILS First Ever Meeting in Dixie

The 6th Annual State GILS Conference will be March 31-April 3 in Raleigh, North Carolina for all interested in "Access to State Government Information."

This year's conference will be exciting and informative and a chance to see familiar faces as well as meet new ones. As the information has changed and evolved since the inception of GILS programs, this conference will provide a chance to reflect on the changes and consider the new challenges ahead.
