IMPORTANT:
This workshop series is extremely popular and last year all 25 seats were filled within 15 minutes of registration opening. This year we are updating and creating an even more equitable registration process. In addition to expanding the available seats from 25 to 30, we are taking the following steps:
- Registration will stay open until 100 spots are filled
- Once we close registration, we will put all names into a numbered spreadsheet
- Using a random number generator, we will accept 30 lottery winners
- We are maintaining the limit of up to two participants from one library organization
More registration information is listed below. Be sure to read all of it.
We will notify registrants as soon as possible, if they have secured a spot or not.
