[Michlib-l] Call for Proposal: Small and Strategic Pre-Conference, extended date to June 7, 2024

[Tim Wiggins]

Small and Strategic Pre-Conference

The Michigan Library Association Annual Conference is excited to announce
the 2024 Small and Strategic Pre-Conference to be hosted ahead of the 2024
MLA Annual Conference. This day of programming is geared specifically
toward frontline library staff from Michigan’s small and rural libraries,
providing an opportunity for these dedicated library workers to network,
learn, and discuss the concerns and needs specific to small libraries.

Small and rural libraries are some of the more important and nimble
organizations that exist in our state, and they face unique challenges. The
Michigan Library Association invites proposals for breakout sessions
related to this specific audience at the Small and Strategic Pre-Conference
to be presented in person, on Oct. 15, 2024, at the Grand Traverse Resort
and Spa. Breakouts are 45 minutes in length.

Breakout tracks will focus on Technology, Programming, and Stewardship.

We are looking for proposals that elevate the ideas of intellectual
freedom, equity, and collaboration, with a focus on digital literacy,
de-escalation, underutilized resources, capital improvements, making a
difference on a limited budget, passive programming, and more. Share the
joys and wins of what our small and rural libraries can accomplish!

This invitation extends to all library professionals and partners - from
first-time to experienced presenters, as well as professional speakers and
subject matter experts.
