Slack chat

AMICAL members may use our consortial chat platform, Slack (amical.slack.com), for quick questions. This may sometimes be the fastest way to get an answer.

Two main ways to post questions or comments:

• Post in the main conference channel (#amical2019), if you don’t mind other members seeing it.
• Open a direct message just to the person you’re trying to reach @Vanessa Lawrence, @jeff, @alex, @zorkani, etc.).

Not on our Slack workspace yet? We will send out invites to all AMICAL conference attendees.

AMICAL Connect forum (AMICAL members only)

For longer questions, especially those that might be of broader interest to other members, AMICAL members may post to the AMICAL 2019 category on AMICAL Connect.

Email

Anyone may send questions/issues about any aspect of the event to amicalconf@amicalnet.org and we will route it to the appropriate person.
