[LM_NET] Showcase your best practices at the AASL Exploratorium!

[Steven Hofmann <shofmann@ALA.ORG>]

The American Association of School Librarians (AASL), a division of the American 
Library Association (ALA), is currently accepting proposals for the Exploratorium, 
which will take place at the AASL National Conference and Exhibition in Pittsburgh, 
Pa., in October 2005.

The Exploratorium will be held on Thursday, October 6, 1-3 p.m.  It is a two-hour 
educational session showcasing "best practices" from the school library media 
community, and will consist of learning stations where attendees can browse at 
their own pace spending as much or as little time at each station as they wish.  
The Exploratorium provides a national forum to share school library media successes 
from a school, district or state level.

The first AASL Exploratorium was held at its 11th National Conference and 
Exhibition in Kansas City in 2003, where the AASL @ your library campaign was 
launched.  This year's Exploratorium would be the perfect venue to show off what 
campaign-related activities and initiatives were successful @ your library since 
the fall of 2003.

To find out more about the Exploratorium and get proposal topic ideas, go to the 
"For Presenters" area of the AASL Conference Web site at 
http://www.ala.org/aasl/pittsburgh/presenters and click on "Exploratorium 
Proposals."  The deadline for proposal submissions is Monday, April 25, 2005.
