 Student chapter
invites you to register to attend QuasiCon 2014: An (Un)Conference at the
University of Michigan Dedicated to
Libraries<https://sites.google.com/a/umich.edu/quasicon/> on
Saturday, February 8. What is QuasiCon? It's a day of presentations and
discussion devoted to understanding the present and future of libraries and
information spaces. We have over 20 presentations, panels, and speakers
lined up, including many current students at UMSI. We also have discussions
and breakout sessions planned so that all attendees can contribute.

This year's QuasiCon will also feature keynote speaker Jane Blumenthal,
MLibrary Associate University Librarian and Director, Taubman Health
Sciences Library. Jane has more than 30 years as a librarian in places such
as the University of Michigan, Georgetown, and the American Medical
Association.

QuasiCon is open to anyone with an interest in libraries. Any student,
regardless of specialization or area of study, is welcome. Any professional
librarian, faculty, or staff with an interest in libraries and who wants to
network and participate in challenging discussion is also welcome. Please
feel free to forward this email to anyone who might be interested!

We have kept registration at a nominal $10 fee ($5 for presenters) to help
us cover lunch for all attendees and other expenses associated with the
event, payable in cash or check the day of the event. Please fill out our
online registration form in advance so we know how many to prepare for.

We hope to see you there!

Appreciatively,
QuasiCon 2014 Planners
