- consider presenting at or attending this conference. Roberta
Richards, Sue Phelps and I did last year and it was fun mingling with
others involved with student success. The library is key to student
success and retention - we just need to get the word out! This is a
great place to discover other offices on campus that the library can
partner with.<br>
<br>
Email me (Bob Schroeder <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:schroedr@pdx.edu">schroedr@pdx.edu</a>) if you have questions about
this conference, or if you want the official proposal form to fill out
(I didn't think I could email an attachment to the list).<br>
