Annual Writers Conferences: The University of North Dakota

Since 1970, the University of North Dakota (UND) has hosted an annual writers conference, complete with plenary sessions, panel discussions, and seminars. A number of important writers have been in attendance, including Harlan Ellison and Allen Ginsburg. Currently, the Chester Fritz Library Department of Special Collections at UND is digitizing all of these sessions, and there are some real treats here. While the site remains a work in progress, visitors can view all the sessions from 2003, 2004, and 1974 at their leisure. The 1974 Conference is most excellent, and it includes readings from Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Kenneth Rexroth, and Gary Snyder. The video on the homepage rotates through all of the sessions, and one of the recently profiled videos was a delightful talk by Oliver Sacks titled "Uncle Tungsten: Memories of a Chemical Boyhood".
