Rebecca Stenzel
congratulated the chapter on bringing a speaker to the joint conference. She believed it was the strong point of the
conference.
ALA
Workshop: Ed Rock, ACRL workshop
co-coordinator, gave a report on the progress of the workshop to be held
Friday, January 18, at Tulance. Capacity
is 70 participants; fifteen people have enrolled as of today. The speakers are nongratis, but their
expenses must be paid. Some profit is
expected to be made by the chapter.
After a
discussion on how to use any monies made from the workshop, Rebecca Stenzel
made a motion that profits from the ALA preconference workshop be used as a
foundation for funding “Librarian Development Activities” for the state. These activities could use the ACRL Immersion
Program or other outside resources.
Laverne Simoneaux seconded. The
motion passed.
The President
appointed Laverne Simoneaux to chair a committee to study the immersion
program.
Ed Rock thanked
Adrienne Detwiler, former Webmaster, for putting the information about the ALA
workshop immediately on the web.
If any board
member wants to volunteer to work at the workshop contact J.B. Hill or Ed Rock.

Maleck-Wiley will print labels and mail to those who use them or will send the
database as an email attachment.
