ACRL/LA

Conference Meeting

October 28, 2002

Northwestern State University

Laverne Simoneaux, President, introduced the ACRL/LA Executive Committee. Dennis Tucker, President-elect, introduced the Conference Committee. Dennis also announced the decision made at the June 7, 2002, Executive Committee meeting to hold the annual conference at the President’s home campus. This will allow a year and a half of planning instead of less than a year, as it is now. The additional time to plan the conference will be beneficial to members.

Debra Rollins, LLA past President, announced that LLA is 77 years old. She asked the group to endorse a dues increase because it has been many years since the last one and an increase is needed. Debra also asked members to attend the LLA Conference, March 18-20, 2003, in Gonzales.

Dennis Tucker announced that the ACRL/LA membership table is across from registration. Dennis then introduced Sara Laughlin, guest speaker.
