To receive the guaranteed conference rate, you must mention the Quint Meeting, Medical Libraries Conference, or Special Libraries Conference and make your reservation by October 1, 2003.

Important message: Due to overwhelming response and the tail-end of other Philadelphia conventions, the Quint Meeting hotel block is temporarily full for Saturday, October 25, 2003. The other nights (Sunday Oct. 26-Tuesday Oct. 28) should have sufficient rooms available. A Quint Meeting waiting list is in place and as soon as rooms open up, those on the waiting list will immediately be placed in a room and contacted by the hotel to confirm the reservation. The Sheraton is fairly confident that rooms will become available for Saturday night.

To be placed on the Quint Meeting waiting list contact: Cynthia Diggs, Quint meeting reservation specialist 215-238-6035 or cynthia.diggs@sheraton.com She will need to know that you are part of the Quint Meeting, your contact information (name, phone, email, fax), what night you need, and room requirements (beds, non-smoking, etc.)
