THE OUGHTRED SOCIETY
2011 SUMMER MEETING

You are invited to attend the Twentieth Annual Oughtred Society West Coast Meeting, which will be held Saturday, June 25, 2011, at our usual location at the Computer History Museum, in Mountain View, California.

The Computer History Museum has been completely remodeledwith more formal displays and exhibits around certain computing themes and that should make our visit this year additionally interesting. Checkout the new look of the Computer History Museum on their website . The room that we have used in past years is no longer available to us andhas been made part of the museum proper in their remodel. Therefore, we will be meeting on the second floor this year, with additional space available just outside the room for our usual lunch during the meeting.

The meeting will feature displays of slide rule collections, an auction, buying, selling and swapping, and the opportunity to meet and talk with fellow slide rule enthusiasts, many of whom are experts in their areas of interest. As in past years, we will arranged to meet at the home of Tom Wyman after the meeting for dinner and additional discussions, and then at the home of Bob Otnes for dessert, where Bob will have his usual fine collection on display and available for viewing. Details and directions will be provided at the meeting.

All attendees are encouraged, but not required, to bring slide rules and/or calculators to display and to sell or trade. Five foot tables are furnished.
