WAM 2020

Information for Vendors


The Western Archivists Meeting happens only once every four years. We anticipate an engaged group of approximately 400 archivists and information professionals from across the Western U.S. A big part of the attraction is having the chance to talk with vendors face to face and stay abreast of emerging technologies and services. Our attendees appreciate the support from vendors like you.

Vendor Registration is SOLD OUT.
