The first months of 2022 have flown by and registration for ALA’s Annual Conference has begun. We are still looking for volunteers who live in the DC area to help with Local Arrangements and Marketing. It’s a short volunteer term so it’s not too lengthy. Volunteers will assist during the conference and what better way to meet other YALSA members in your area if you don’t know them already! I know from personal experience its always nice to meet members in their hometowns, since you have the knowledge of the best places to eat and see!
Here is the description of the task force:
Annual Conference Marketing & Local Arrangements Taskforce – Washington DC
- To plan and implement YALSA local arrangements activities in close cooperation with YALSA’s Program Officer for Conferences & Events, including assisting on-site with logistics for YALSA programs.
- To work with YALSA’s Communications Specialist prior to the conference to create and disseminate online marketing materials that promote YALSA’s presence at the ALA Annual Conference.
Committee members are expected to attend Annual. 5 – 7 virtual members including the chair. Term: 6 Months, January 1 to June 30
And it’s March, so it’s really only 3 months now!
If your interested in volunteering please contact Letitia Smith lsmith@ala.org or myself Franklin Escobedo fescobedo@cityoflarkspur.org
I’ll see you too in DC!
Franklin Escobedo
YALSA President-Elect 2021-2022
