Thanks, Andrea. I guess I did see this after all. Unfortunately, I don't think I will be able to attend. Our travel budget is very tight and I have to go to both ALA meetings this year due to committee responsibilities. I'll definitely keep this conference in mind for next year though! -Meghan Quoting "Goethals, Andrea" <[log in to unmask]>: > Here's the call for proposals mentioned in our NDSA Standards & > Practices call.
