[kids-lib] FW: [oasl-all] OASL Fall Conference - REGISTRATION OPEN NOW!

[MAURER Jennifer L * SLO]

Please pardon the cross-posting. Hi, folks. Registration is now open for the OASL Fall Conference, which will be on Saturday, Oct. 5th in Portland. Some school library folks seek to use funds that need to be spent before the end of the current school year to register, so I wanted to pass along this heads up. In line with the theme of #BetterTogether, I encourage public library staff to consider attending, as well. This conference is an excellent professional development and networking opportunity! - Cheers, Jen (Jen Maurer, School Library Consultant, State Library of Oregon, jennifer.maurer at slo.oregon.gov<mailto:jennifer.maurer at slo.oregon.gov>)

Summer break is on the horizon; but, as an educator, you most likely have your eye on next school year and are considering library programs, book purchases, and lesson plans you want to implement.

I'd like to encourage each of you to add attending the Oregon Association of School Libraries 2024 Fall Conference in Portland, Oregon, on October 5th to your calendar. The conference theme #BetterTogether offers attendees a chance to enrich their professional lives while engaging with fantastic local presenters, state leaders in the field of school libraries, and award-winning authors.

We are thrilled to welcome a fantastic panel of talent to this year's conference.  Author Phil Bildner<https://philbildner.com/> will be our keynote speaker and join author Dashka Slater<https://www.dashkaslater.com/> and cartoonist Breena Bard<https://www.breenabard.com/about> for a breakfast panel and session presentations.

Additionally, we have a full schedule of sessions<https://sites.google.com/pps.net/oaslfallconference2024/schedule?authuser=0> that address the breadth of our work in school libraries and focus on best practice, program implementation, innovation in technology, and staff development.

Your 2024 conference committee is looking forward to October and know that you will leave the conference inspired by all the ways our school library community works #BetterTogether!
