Below is another great opportunity to share your knowledge and experience with other library staff serving youth (and all our other library patrons!) in Wisconsin. The YSS Board is always happy to help members polish a proposal; just send us an email.
Marge Loch-Wouters, WLA President, also highly recommended this session from the Wild Wisconsin Winter Web Conference 2018 on public speaking: Kick Starter: How to Become a Great Speaker: A Step By Step Guide Recording Slides

Greetings on this chilly, sunny day!
Planning for the 2018 WLA Support Staff and Circulation Services (SSCS) One-Day Professional Development Conference is in full swing! The conference will be held Thursday, May 24th, 2018 on the picturesque campus of UW-Baraboo.
The
conference planning committee is now accepting proposals and
recommendations for presentations, panels and workshops. Suggested
topics include but are not limited to: technology, managing difficult
patrons, training student workers, bringing the library outside,
community partnerships, bridging the generational divide, stress
reducers, etc. What is it that makes your library shine? Successful
presentations should be approximately 45 minutes, include 10-15 minutes
of question and answer, showcase effective and innovative practices, and
be applicable to many types of libraries.
Presenters should fill out the online registration form (linked below) by Friday, April 6th, 2018. Presenters will be notified of acceptance by April 13th at the latest.
Please
let me know if you have any questions. We're looking forward to an
excellent conference--and your program ideas help make it that way!
Cheers!
Brendan Faherty, 2018 SSCS Chair
