<i>LearningExpress Library</i> information, I want to say <b>thanks to <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/2012oasl/home/contactus">
everyone</a> who worked on the OASL fall conference committee</b>. I was impressed with the mix of useful and interesting session options and felt like the choices were valuable for librarians, library media managers, classroom teachers, and technology folks.
Also, things went smoothly for me both as a presenter and attendee, and I know a lot of worked happened behind the scenes to make that so. Kudos on a great conference!
