2007 ARSC Conference Recordings

List of Past Conference Recordings

Orders are now being accepted for the 2007 ARSC Conference Recording Package. In previous years, you’ve had to pick and choose among individual presentations furnished on audio CDs, but this year we’re pleased to offer all available recordings in mp3 format as a single package on CD-R for $35, shipping included. Along with the audio, the package also features select supplementary material (e.g., PowerPoint presentations, video).

Please note that not all sessions are included, as some presenters do not want their presentations to be distributed (pending publication, copyright restrictions, etc). A full table of contents is available on ARSC’s website www.arsc.audio.org).

Print the order form and send to:

No part may be sold, loaned, copied, or published without the written permission of the speaker. Some sessions may not be available due to contract restrictions.
