Annual Meeting

MLA 2012 Annual Meeting logo

VMLS is sponsoring two contributed paper session this year:

  • Wisdom of Yogi: How We Instruct Our Game
    It would be fun to encourage presenters to look up quotes by Yogi Berra and use those as starting points. This session is also intended to have a very broad scope, covering topics from revitalizing our programs and services, key successes, changes in collections and services, take home messages, elevator speeches, and what we can learn from our new recruits.
  • Instant Replay: How Technology Is Changing Our Game
    This program is intended to have a very broad scope, both in the interpretation of the word "technology" and the possible meaning for "our game." Technology could be something implemented by the library, its parent institution, its client groups, or the information/educational technology world in general. Our game could span library services, programs, collections, and physical spaces, as well as the roles of librarians.
