The Society for Text & Discourse will hold its Nineteenth Annual Meeting in Rotterdam, Netherlands from Sunday through Tuesday, July 25-27, 2009.  This conference will be followed by and partly overlap with a two-day conference on Embodied Sentence Comprehension, which will be a sequel to a highly successful newly launched conference, http://www.coli.uni-saarland.de/conf/esp07/. It also precedes Cognitive Science which will be held the end of this week in Amsterdam at Vrije Univeristat. 

Rolf Zwann will chair the conference, along with co-organizers Katinka Dijkstra, Diane Pecher and Anique de Bruin. 

A link to the conference web site will be posted at this location in Fall 2008.  The Call for Presenters will be released in late Fall with a submission deadline in early February. 

The 2010 Meeting will be held in Chicago.

Potential hosts and locations for the 2011 are being sought.  Please contact Anne Britt with nominations at britt@niu.edu

Special thanks to Max Louwerse, Danielle McNamara, Art Graesser and all of our Memphis members who contributed to a super 2008 conference.  The program and schedule are now posted in the archive.
