The Oregon Library Association Conference Committee is looking for program<br>and pre-conference proposals for the 2014 Conference - The Inside Out Library - to be held at the<br>Salem Convention Center in Salem, April 16-18. <br>
<br>The conference committee is especially seeking programs that relate to innovation, <br>transformation and outreach.<br><br>At this point the program does not have to be fully organized; you can give<br>us a general idea of the program and speakers (if known), and fill in the<br>
other details asked on the proposal form. Each program or pre-conference<br>must be sponsored by an OLA unit, but if you have great program idea and<br>don't have a sponsor, the Program Committee will attempt some matchmaking.<br>
The Pre-Conference and Program Proposal deadline has been extended to September 30, 2013. The Showcase Proposal deadline has been extended to November 30, 2013.</div><div style="font-size:13px;font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">
