NSPA Conference Thriving Despite Cutbacks

Such enthusiasm makes Don Bailey proud. Bailey, Nevada State Printer, started the NSPA back in 1977, and he has attended every conference since then—"and never missed a class," he emphasized. "I've always taken something back that saved the state of Nevada money."

With the technology changes going on in the industry, Bailey said, government printers need to get together to compare notes and learn from one another's experiences. This is especially important for in-plant managers in more remote locations, like Harold Pence, Duplicating Services manager for the Alaska Legislative Affairs Agency, in Juneau.
