Join us for the 2014 iYouth Conference: (R)Evolution! Check out the tumblr for speaker information: www.iyouthcon14.tumblr.com. Six free clock hours of continuing education credit will be offered to for professionals seeking them.
We have chosen “(R)Evolution” as a theme that reflects the ways in which the face of librarianship is adapting to meet the evolving needs of our young patrons. We seek to discuss ways in which to help them develop the tool kits to advocate for themselves.
UW Information School Dean Emeritus, Dr. Michael Eisenberg, will give a keynote speech to cap a day filled with lectures and workshops that address the increasingly important impact of technological change and community outreach programming.
When? Saturday, February 8th from 9AM – 5PM @University of Washington’s Mary Gates Hall
Where do I sign up? Go to http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/538422
Why? Free Breakfast. Coffee will be included all day.
Who? Hopefully You! Please also forward this email on to any professionals interested in libraries, teaching, and that serve our youth (birth-age 18).
How Much? Due to unanticipated support form the UW HUB, Wells Fargo, and the UW Graduate and Professional Student Senate, we have been able to reduce the price of admission to $35.00 with lunch or $25.00 without for professionals. For students, the cost is $20.00 with lunch or $10.00 without! If you would like to attend the conference and are planning on ordering a LUNCH, please do so by Sunday, February 2, 2014 because this is the date our catering order must be turned in by.
If you have any question, please feel free to contact us at iyouth.info@gmail.com. Thank you!
We hope to see you on Feb. 8th!
