Published 2012-03-21, updated 2013-02-13Version 2

We show that a strongly irreducible and boundary-strongly irreducible surface can be isotoped to be almost normal in a triangulated 3-manifold.

Comments: Incorporates changes suggested by referee. This version will appear in the volume "Geometry & Topology Down Under," published in the AMS series Contemporary Mathematics
