Announcements

91 We have been encouraged to plan the most complex and largescale project to date: a multi-volume annotated secondary bibliography on George Bernard Shaw. In the light of the events since I969, it seems appropriate to schedule a second Seminar at this time. H. E. Gerber will be Discussion Leader; place and time will be announced in a future number of ELT. Attendance is limited to editors and contributing abstracters to published volumes and those in progress, and to invited participants. Discussion will focus on procedures used to prepare the early volumes in the series, the recently revised Abstracters' Manual, and the proposed Shaw project. ANNOUNCEMENTS 1.
