2013 ILA Annual Conference Call for Programs

[Laura L. Barnes]

Besides the Unconference (I'll do the proposal for that), what programs would you like to see the Leadership Forum propose for 2013?

I'd like to have a discussion along with some volunteers to submit the proposals/spearhead finding speakers.

The theme for the 2013 ILA Annual Conference is Ignite!, with fire symbolizing the burning enthusiasm of our profession, the sparking and catching of ideas, and the untamed ambition of all those who seek to offer warm atmospheres, transforming ideas, and hot services to their communities.  Illinois library employees are proud to be trailblazers, consistently striving to spark new ideas for serving the burning needs of our communities.  Through kindled inspiration, connectivity and collaboration, we actively share our ideas, Ignite! the conversation and, in doing so, light a path for others.

 

The ILA Annual Conference Program Committee is seeking program proposals that focus on engaging your community, stimulating imagination, fostering creativity and ingenuity, sharing gifts and talents, and demonstrating leadership for libraries of every size and every type.  Whether you are an academic, special, school, or public librarian; a human resources, marketing, facilities, or law professional; or in a rural or city library serving a large or small population, we ask you to consider submitting a proposal.  Please consider collaborating and partnering with each other.

 

Submit your proposals at https://s4.goeshow.com/ila/annual/2013/abstract_submission.cfm.
