Dear Colleague,
The program for the XIV Workshop on Lepton-Nucleus Scattering,
jointly sponsored by the Italian National Institute for Nuclear
Research (INFN) and the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator
Facility (JLab), has been finalized.
The program consists of invited talks only. Please note that there
is a 350 Euro fee, which is to be paid in cash at registration (credit
cards or personal checks cannot be accepted).
Further information, including the program, a tentative schedule of
talks, and a link to the ONLINE ACCOMMODATION FORM, can be found at
www.jlab.org/conferences/elba
The travel agency ABVIAGGI in Marciana Marina, Isola d'Elba, will be
handling the reservations on a first-come-first-serve basis. Please
note that Elba is a popular tourist destination, hence we need to
receive the completed accommodation form by no later than April 29.
The hotels are all within walking distance of the conference venue
(0.5 km at the most), and are typically three-star level (a couple
of them are four-star level). Caterina at ABVIAGGI will provide you
with a list of available hotels from which to choose ONCE the
online accommodation form has been filled out. Since the agency
has already made pre-arrangements with these hotels, we would ask
that you make your reservation through them.
Please, bring this notice to the attention of any of your colleagues
who might be interested in attending the Workshop.
We look forward to meeting you in Elba,

Flying to Italy
If you plan to fly to Italy, you will probably be landing in Milano or
Roma. We suggest that you also consider the possibility of flying to Pisa
or Elba. Pisa is connected to the main European destinations, as well as

from Germany (Munich and Friedrichshafen) and Switzerland (Bern and Zurich).
