Where will you be in July? IAJGS conference

Jewish genealogists from around the world will be heading out west for the 27th IAJGS International Conference on Jewish Genealogy, set for July 15-20, 2007, in Salt Lake City.

IAJGS is the International Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies, the umbrella group for the many JGS's around the world.

The IAJGS Web site can also help readers locate a nearby JGS, where they can participate in interesting programs, receive research help and access relevent publication libraries.

The conference Web site has user-friendly online registration and frequent updates of event details, so check it out.

I will be reporting on details of the event as they are confirmed by the Conference Committee, so stay tuned for many announcements, such as one about a very special photo exhibit which deserves its own special blog posting (on the way).

Readers in the Western United States should take advantage of this year's location; 2008 will see the annual event move further east -- it will be in Chicago for the first time.
