BAAL 2010 will be held at the University of Aberdeen. The conference will be organised by the School of Language and Literature and the Centre for Linguistic Research. The University campus is located close to the city centre in the historic Village of Old Aberdeen and within easy reach of railway and bus stations. Aberdeen airport is served by regular flights with low-cost airlines from cities across the British Isles and Europe. Aberdeen, Scotland's third city, is known by many names: the granite city, the oil capital of Europe, and the silver city by the golden sands, all of these encapsulating various aspects of the city. Aberdeen has two universities, a 5 star Maritime Museum, a variety of restaurants, coffee shops, tea rooms, and a wide range of cultural, entertainment, and shopping attractions. The Aberdeen- Grampian area boasts dozens of castles, coastal roads, golf courses and plenty of cultural attractions. We are confident that it will provide an inspiring conference experience too.
