FYI,

Just Sharing a few items of interest:

Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC) Upcoming Events:

• Next Friday, 2/18/2022, at 10AM CT, 11 AM ET,  ALSC will host a free 2022 Newbery Coffee Klatch with this year’s medalist and honorees – a conversation moderated by 2022 Newbery Chair Tad Andracki. It’s not a “CE” opportunity, pe se, but a meeting of great minds in the field of children’s literature that some might be able to posit as CE with their administrators.
• Registration for ALSC National Institute in Kansas City, Missouri, September 29-October 1, 2022, is now open. ALSC will be announcing our keynotes and education sessions over the next four weeks, so please be on the lookout for that information.
