[Michlib-l] Call For Host Institution: Michigan Instruction Exchange (MIX) 2018

[Jo Angela Oehrli]

*The Michigan Instruction Exchange (MIX) is looking for a college or
university library to host MIX 2018, a biennial, statewide conference that
focuses on academic library instruction.  This one-day conference takes
place in August during even-numbered years.  Please contact us if your
institution would like to host the MIX conference in August 2018.The host
institution will have significant control over conference content and
should consider the following factors before volunteering. - Low cost
meeting space availability.  Depending on the needs of the conference,
there may be a need for a large room for all 50-100 attendees as well as a
potential need for smaller rooms nearby if breakout sessions are
desirable.- Local commitment to hosting a conference.- Possibilities for
coordinating lunchPast organizers acknowledge that this may be short notice
for some institutions. This year past organizers were able to secure
funding to support the conference from the Michigan Academic Library
Association (MiALA) through the Instruction and Information Literacy
Interest Group.  The previous MIX organizers are grateful for this support.
 It is anticipated that the host institution may not have to provide much
funding on their own and will have some support from the MiALA Instruction
and Information Literacy Interest Group.  Previous conference information
can be found on the University of Michigan Libraries web site
<https://www.lib.umich.edu/instructor-college/mix-michigan-instruction-exchange>
and on the Wayne State University Libraries web site
<http://guides.lib.wayne.edu/mix2016>.  Please contact Angie Oehrli by
March 23rd at jooehrli at umich.edu <jooehrli at umich.edu> if you have any
questions or if you would like to host the conferene. My apologies for any
duplication.  Thank you.Angie*
