At its November conference call, the GLBTRT Executive Board approved an Ad hoc committee to plan and manage a GLBTRT Pre-Conference in San Francisco. \u00a0Because much of this work needs to be done before August 2014, this year’s program committee does\u00a0not have the time or resources to add a pre-conference to their work.<\/p>\n
I am seeking member volunteers who have experience with program planning, who are planning to be in San Francisco, and who have the time to work on planning a pre-conference proposal between now and March 2014 and annual 2014\u00a0\u2026 and continue to work through June of 2015.<\/p>\n
Please let Ann Symons (chair-elect) know if you are interested in being on this committee. \u00a0We hope to get the ad hoc committees on ALA Connect’s volunteer page but as yet they are not there. \u00a0 The committee information is below. <\/strong><\/p>\n Charge:<\/p>\n Plan and manage a full or half day pre conference in San Francisco 2014 subject and content \u00a0GLBT Teens or GLBT Families. \u00a0Content proposal including suggested speakers, number of participants and cost proposal to be shared with GLBTRT Executive Board by March 2014 with full approval at Annual 2014. \u00a0Propose ALA units to co-sponsor.<\/p>\n Look at formats for other ALA Preconferences – full day and half day; investigate costs.<\/p>\n Committee to consist of 5-7 members plus a board liaison. \u00a0\u00a0Planned attendance in SFO is desirable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At its November conference call, the GLBTRT Executive Board approved an Ad hoc committee to plan and manage a GLBTRT Pre-Conference in San Francisco. \u00a0Because much of this work needs to be done before August 2014, this year’s program committee does\u00a0not have the time or resources to add a pre-conference to their work.
