<p class="MsoNormal"><b>2016 OLA Conference: An Abundance of Sessions for Academic Librarians/Library Staff<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In addition to spending some time in beautiful Bend, there are lots of other great reasons this year why academic librarians/library staff should consider attending next month’s 2016 OLA Annual Conference, April 20-22. Check out the
<a href="http://orlib16.sched.org/company/academic">more than 30 academic-focused sessions</a> at this year’s conference! On Wednesday, there are 5 pre-conferences of interest; on Thursday, there are 14 sessions of interest; and on Friday there are 16 session
of interest. Wow! The most difficult part will be choosing which of the concurrent sessions of interest to attend. What a great problem to have!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And for those of you that make the trip to Bend, make sure you block out time on your conference calendar for the ACRL-OR Reception on Wednesday, April 20, 5:00pm – 7:00pm. We love getting to spend time with our academic colleagues at the
OLA Conference. Details about the reception location will be forthcoming on this site and Libs-Or.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">See you in Bend!<o:p></o:p></p>
