[kids-lib] CSD can help you attend the ALSC Virtual Institute!

[Natasha Forrester]

*Want to attend a national conference for children's library staff, but
don't have the travel time or money? Now is your chance - and OLA's
Children's Services Division (CSD) can help!   *

ALA's Association for Library Services to Children's (ALSC) 2016 National
Institute in September is going to be a completely virtual conference for
the first and perhaps *only* time. That means NO travel is necessary, and
it's far less expensive - and CSD can save you money on registration!

The 2016 ALSC Virtual Institute is everything you need in one place -
programming, keynotes, networking, discussion forums, and much more. Learn
more about the Virtual Institute on the ALSC website
<http://www.ala.org/alsc/2016-alsc-virtual-institute>.

*Save money on registration!*

Registration for the institute
<http://www.ala.org/Template.cfm?Section=eventsinst&Template=/Conference/ConferenceList.cfm&ConferenceTypeCode=I>
is
cheaper with the group registration option. To qualify for ALSC's group
rate you must have at least 5 people in your group, and the more  people in
your group the cheaper it is per person.

So how does CSD save you money? Apply for a CSD scholarship
<http://www.csdola.org/scholarships.html> for up to $500! Scholarship
applications for groups of people representing at least 3 Oregon libraries
will be get preference when scholarships are awarded. If you have questions
about CSD's scholarships, contact Barratt Miller at csd at olaweb.org.
