[LM_NET] YALSA's YA Lit Symposium Registration Now Open!

[Stephanie Kuenn <skuenn@ALA.ORG>]

Greetings!

 

Come experience YALSA hospitality in Nashville, Tenn., at the first-ever
Young Adult Literature Symposium, Nov. 7-9! The symposium's theme is
"How We Read Now," and will feature an optional preconference on
illustrated materials for teens, a genre luncheon that will give
attendees the chance to meet & mingle with authors, as well as two days
of great programs and paper presentations. See all the details, plus
housing and registration rates, at www.ala.org/yalitsymposium!

 

Early bird registration is open through September 1 at
www.ala.org/yalitsymposium. YALSA, Tennessee Library Association and
Tennessee Association of School Librarians received discounted
registration, as do students. Housing registration is also open at
www.ala.org/yalitsymposium (special rate available for YA Lit Symposium
attendees). 

 

Short on funds but interested in attending? Be sure to fill out an
application for our $1,000 stipend for use toward travel. The stipend
will be given in two categories: one to a YALSA personal member who is
also a library student enrolled in an ALA-accredited MLS program as of
Nov. 7, 2008, and one to a YALSA personal member who has one to ten
years of experience serving teenagers in a professional library setting.
Stipend applications are due May 1 and can be found at
www.ala.org/yalitsymposium. 

 

Contact me at skuenn@ala.org with any questions!
