We don’t anticipate that the conference will be affected by the recent snowfall. Conference registration fees will not be refunded due to inclement weather.
We look forward to sun and cloud in Jasper on Thursday and rising temperatures over the weekend — and a great conference!

The Library Association of Alberta and the Alberta Library Trustees Association are very excited to be offering an important pre-conference at the Alberta Library Conference in Jasper on April 24, 1 -4 pm.
The half day pre-conference is on the highly-regarded Public Library Association Planning for Results process. This process is being recommended by Public Library Services, Alberta Municipal Affairs, as an appropriate planning process for Alberta libraries and library boards to use to meet their planning requirements.
Planning for Results is based on identifying community vision and community needs, and developing Library Service Responses to link user needs with the library. We are lucky to have as a presenter Pat Taviss, who has worked as a library trustee, library director and vendor, and although now based in the US, began her library career in Grande Prairie.
Due to generous funding by the Alberta Government, we can offer this pre-conference session at a fraction of the usual cost.
The pre-conference costs $30.00 including GST
You can still register by April 4, 2008.
If you have already registered for ALC and wish to add the preconference to your registration, please contact Steven Leard at steven@marketwhys.ca Continue Reading »
