<p>Come celebrate the holidays together at our <strong>2<sup>nd</sup> Annual ORSLA December Tea</strong>.</p>
<p>The afternoon tea will feature <strong><a href="http://mollyraphael.org/" target="_blank">Molly Raphael</a>, ALA President-Elect, presenting “Staying Power”</strong>: Libraries of all types have had to change rapidly, particularly over the past two decades, in order to survive. How can we position our libraries not only to survive but also to thrive as we serve our diverse communities? What difficult choices will we have to make in the next few years to ensure that our value remains high for those we serve, no matter the type of library? This presentation will offer some ideas and proposals. Please join us and share your ideas as well!</p>
