RI Library Association Conference

By admin | May 13, 2013

OLIS will be sponsoring two sessions at the upcoming RILA Conference, to be held June 3-4 at beautiful Salve Regina University in Newport, right on the Cliff Walk.

Marci Merola, Director of the Office for Library Advocacy for the American Library Association will present Advocating for Libraries: Keys to Success to help you learn key arguments and lines of reasoning to use when talking about libraries with legislators and other key stakeholders.

Gloria Stuart, Assistive Technology Consultant from TechACCESS of Rhode Island, will talk about eBook readers and accessibility.  eBook readers and emerging technologies used in library programs should be accessible to users of all abilities – if your library distributes eReaders or is considering it, you should attend this session to make sure your program complies with ADA accessibility requirements.

Don’t miss these and other great sessions on all aspects of librarianship for all types of libraries!  Join us at the annual RILA conference.  And register by May 13 for the early bird rate!

And don’t miss the opportunity to meet any and all AskRI vendors and learn more about AskRI while you’re there.  (That’s AtoZdatabases, EBSCO, Learning Express, Mango Languages, ProQuest, Tutor.com and World Book.)
