A Call for papers has been issued for the 2006 CCA conference in Ottawa 
(_http://www.cca-acc.org/_). The conference is being held in conjunction 
with the 2006 GeoTec Event - “Celebrating History and Innovation” 
marking the one hundredth anniversary of the Atlas of Canada and the 
20th anniversary of GeoTec. The event will feature sessions that 
commemorate the innovative contributions of the Atlas of Canada, and the 
contributions by Canadians in the advancement of geospatial technology.

The conference will be held jointly with the Association of Map 
Libraries and Archives (ACMLA), the International Cartographic 
Association Commission on National and Regional Atlases and the 
International Cartographic Association Commission on Maps and the 
Internet and promises to be a well attended event.
CCA members are encouraged to submit proposals for conference 
presentations (papers, posters) that will be organized into general 
thematic sessions. In addition, you can organize a special session, a 
panel discussion, or host a workshop.

Abstracts of 100-200 words must be submitted before Jan. 15, 2006 to the 
Interest Group chair in whose track you wish to present. The IG chairs 
will be coordinating their sessions within the overall framework of 
GeoTec tracks (current GeoTec tracks can be seen at

in special CCA tracks.
