Important Updates

• Workshop Registration Closed- The Wednesday morning preconference workshop, Bringing the Mountain to Mohammed or Reaching More Students with Online Instruction (presented by Beth Perry) is full.

• 2006 Annual Conference Housing Sold Out-Record attendance at the ATLA 2006 Annual Conference means the room blocks at the Holiday Inn Chicago Mart Plaza and Cenacle Retreat Center are both full.  If you have not already made your housing arrangements, please contact Timothy Smith, tsmith@atla.com or 888.665.2852. He’ll be able to offer further assistance or add your name to a waiting list for the Cenacle.

• Technical Services Section Pre-Conference Gathering
  Date:  Tuesday, June 20, 2006, Time: 7:00-9:00 PM
  Here’s the latest information on this session from Richard Lammert, Chair of the Steering Committee: Join other technical services librarians in a discussion on recruiting, training, and mentoring the next generation of theological technical services librarians―how might we begin doing this? How do we identify these persons, and provide for them the needed resources? Perhaps you yourself need some resources―how can ATLA and the Technical Services Web site be improved to give you what you need? Get some on-the-spot mentoring by bringing 20 to 25 copies of some original cataloging, and we can help you improve it (maybe it's already great, and you didn't know it!). Help us prepare for next year, when we meet in Philadelphia with a representative from the Library of Congress--how can LC and ATLA technical service librarians work together better in a fruitful collaboration for theological librarianship?
