The Keynote Speaker this year is Justice Betty Roberts.  Betty Roberts 
was the first woman on the Oregon Supreme Court, and was also the first 
woman on the Oregon Court of Appeals" Oregon Court of Appeals.  Roberts' 
recently published memoir, /"//With Grit and By Grace: Breaking Trails 
in Politics and Law"/, is the story of her remarkable life, and it 
describes, first-hand, the hard won accomplishments that have marked the 
career of one of Oregon's most important leaders. In her keynote session 
Thursday morning, Justice Roberts will share stories from her career and 
from the time spent writing and researching her memoir.  In honor of her 
audience, Roberts will introduce us to the intricacies of her research 
process and the many librarians she met along the way-all the more 
reason that this session promises to inspire.  Do not miss it.
