Oct. 28: Santa Fe, NM --
SIGDOC 2001 was a success! In spite of considerable challenges, the
conference took place at La Fonda hotel in Santa Fe, New Mexico. While we
were a smaller group than usual, we were an enthusiastic bunch. Thanks to
everyone for making this year's event particularly pleasurable.
Please mark your calendars for
SIGDOC 2002 next October in Toronto, Canada!

Welcome!
As we enter the new millennium, communication is becoming increasingly
global. English-only Web sites are fast becoming a limiting factor in the
intellectual exchange of ideas and information. Indeed, the printed document is
giving way to electronic formats, including non-textual and multimedia
representations of critical information. SIGDOC 2001 will provide an opportunity for the exchange of
information related to exciting new research and experience reports in areas
including (but not limited to):
- National language support in all forms of documentation
- Migrating to multilingual Web sites
- Cultural issues for international audiences
- Making documentation available in multiple formats
- Fundamental design principles that transcend the medium
The host city for SIGDOC 2001 is Santa Fe, New Mexico's state capital and the oldest capital city in the United States.
With its rich cultural heritage, Santa Fe provides a fitting setting to reflect
on current issues and consider new challenges facing us in 2001 and beyond.
