Annual Conference News

From the MINNESOTA LIBRARY ASSOCIATION...

The Annual Conference, November 19-21, in Bloomington, MN, is just around the corner. You can find a draft schedule of programs on the MLA website, as well as the Annual Conference registration form (PDF). The online form will be active in the next few weeks. Look for an announcement soon.

If you haven't renewed your membership for 2008, take the time now to do so. The Individual Membership Application can be found on the homepage.

And a special invitation to potential MLA Members you may know...

New Members only! Join MLA by paying your 2009 membership fees and MLA will welcome you to the 2008 Annual Conference at member registration rates. To take advantage of this limited, one-time offer, new members must pay for both 2009 membership and 2008 conference registration fees. This offer is extended by the MLA Board because of the late date of this year's annual conference, to promote attendance following the PLA conference that was held in Minneapolis this year, and to encourage membership in the association.

Call for Nomination Committee members

I hope you are all enjoying a great Minnesota summer!

I am sending out this call for volunteers to serve on the TSS Nomination Committee for the upcoming election. This year we will be electing a new Vice Chair/Chair-Elect, and Secretary (1 year term since the position is still unfilled from last year). Please be thinking if you could serve your section in this way, or if you know someone who might be interested!

Please notify me by Friday, 22 August 2008 if you are interested in serving on the Nomination Committee.

Many thanks, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Mary Huismann
TSS Chair
