Back by Popular Demand -- RWA's Librarian's Day event
After a sold-out debut at RWA's National Conference in Chicago in 1999,
I'm happy to announce that the Librarian's Day event will take place at this
year's 2000 conference in Washington DC on Wednesday, July 26th. Space is
limited to 100 registrants, so sign up as soon as you can. The cost is $30
for the day of workshops and includes lunch as well as a special Librarians
and Booksellers Reception afterwards. A registration form is available on
RWA's website (in the Librarians section). A few additional registration
forms will be available at RWA's booth (1517) at PLA.
