************************************

 

Have you been thinking about applying for the MiALA Conference Scholarship
application but just haven't done it yet? Maybe you've forgotten about the
scholarship completely. No worries: there's still time to apply! 

The MiALA Annual Conference Registration Grant has been developed to support
a current MiALA member's attendance at the Annual Conference.  We will be
awarding up to 7 MiALA Annual Conference grants.  The Annual Conference
grant will cover full registration, up to two night's expense (room rate and
tax only) at a hotel at which the conference has a room block reserved, and
a $50 travel allowance. Awardee and/or awardee's institution will be
expected to cover any remaining conference or travel costs.

All current individual/student/retiree members of MiALA (with 19-20
membership dues paid) are eligible to apply for the annual conference
registration grant. Applications will be due February 14, 2020 to allow
amount to be awarded before the early bird registration deadline

Wondering if this conference is right for you? Read a testimony from a past
recipient:

 

As a 2019 scholarship recipient for MiALA's Annual Conference, I cannot say
enough about what a great experience I had attending this wonderful event.
As a library support staff member at a community college with a limited
budget, I would not have been able to attend the conference without the
assistance provided. The knowledge I gained from the keynote speaker,
various breakout sessions, and one-on-one conversations with fellow
attendees is invaluable. I feel very proud to be part of such a generous and
forward-thinking organization. 

 

I strongly encourage anyone wanting to attend MiALA's Annual Conference to
apply for one of the several scholarships available. You have nothing to
lose and if selected as a recipient, the rewards are limitless.
