Hello everyone,

The Awesome Foundation Libraries Chapter is hosting its first ever Awesome Ideas Pitch for Libraries during the 2018 ALA Midwinter Conference in Denver on Saturday, February 10th, 4:30 - 6:00 p.m.

We’re looking for great ideas for small projects that could impact your community, demonstrate a new idea, or improve a tool or service.  We’ll choose roughly 8 participants to share their ideas with the ALA community and the judges, along with the audience, will choose their favorite.

The winner will walk out of the pitch event with $1000.

To be considered for the Midwinter event, submit a Pitch Proposal<https://goo.gl/forms/Gs3NVhrrKlH1TfC92> by December 15th, 2017!
