March Conference/Workshop Planning

Discussion of the submitted proposals: 3 on usage statistics, one on film on demand (Kanopy). The 3 on usage statistics will be in the morning, and Kanopy will be in the afternoon.

In addition to keynote speaker Dennis Krieb (Lewis & Clark Community College), someone from ProQuest will have a presentation.

The committee determined that there is no need to have breakout sessions.

A moderator is needed. Waiting for someone to volunteer.

Cindy will find out how much time Denis and the ProQuest person will each need, 30 or 45 minutes. That will have some impact on the schedule of other presentations.

Lesley will send out emails to the presenters who submitted proposals.

Cindy and Jenny will work on how to publicize and open registration for the conference. They will also order lunches for the conference.
