Seminars Round Table

If one of your new year’s resolutions was to hone your editorial skills, don’t miss January’s program! The Toronto branch has prepared another exciting season of seminars, bringing back perennial favourites along with five new seminars: Editing Recipes for Magazines & Cookbooks; APA Style; Localization, Canadianization & English-to-English Translation; Introduction to Reference Manager; and Smooth Sailing: Keeping Your Freelance Editing Business Pleasurable & Profitable.

Seminar instructors Camilla Blakeley, Elizabeth d’Anjou, Kathryn Dean, Emily Dockrill Jones, Nancy Foran, Kellee Kaulback, and Anne Stillman will be on hand to give members the inside scoop and answer any and all questions about their seminars.

Brave the winter weather and start off 2010 on the right foot professionally!

N.B. Because it is Robbie Burns Day, the Duke of York is expecting a busier Monday than usual, so they cannot guarantee that we’ll have our regular rooms. Please check in with the hostess as you enter. Rest assured, however, that there will be room for everyone and all are welcome!

Future Program Lineup

Please note these 2010 meeting dates
February 22: Working with translations and translators. Speakers to be confirmed.
March 22: Tax clinic – special HST edition – with Dimitris Stubos.
April 26: Copyright basics for editors, with Erin Finlay, manager of legal services at Access Copyright.
