Saving AIDS conferences online: interview with Sister Mary Elizabeth, founder of AEGiS. Interview by John S. James.

Some of the most important AIDS conferences are not online, and even the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the conference organizers do not have a paper or electronic copy of the abstracts presented. Some may be lost forever. But they could be saved if a copy can be found, and you might be able to help. Here we interview the founder of AEGIS (www.aegis.org/), the well-known AIDS database that has done critically important work in preserving conferences as well as making AIDS news and other information available around the world.
