experience, or skill level. The second day will focus on general topics for all library staff that serve young children and their families and caregivers. For 2020, both days of the conference will be exclusively online for the first time, while providing
the high quality continuing education, networking opportunities, inspiration, and great ideas of prior CLEL Conferences.</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI",sans-serif;color:#201F1E"><br>
