>We are organizing our usual one-day workshop on applied productivity
>analysis during the NBER Summer Institute. The workshop will be held at
>the Royal Sonesta Hotel on Thursday, July 19 (the week of the EFG
>small-group meetings). The scope of the meeting is intentionally broad—we
>are looking particularly for papers that have a productivity component but
>focus on research questions in other fields.
>
>Papers that are especially suitable for this workshop typically have some
>empirical application, although the paper may be a contribution to the
>pure theory of measurement.
>
>If you have a paper that you believe would be appropriate for this
>workshop, please send a copy to each of us to arrive no later than March
>23, 2007 at the addresses below. If the paper is incomplete you may send
>an abstract or rough draft now, with the finished paper due by June 22.

>Since this mailing goes to a large group, we cannot invite everyone on the
>mailing list to the workshop. For NBER members, travel reimbursement will
>be in accordance with the standard Summer Institute rules. We regret that
>we cannot reimburse travel or lodging expenses for non-NBER
>presenters. However, the NBER Conference Department will assist in making
>hotel reservations and other logistical arrangements.
