Planning Underway for a Bus Trip to ALA-Chicago

The Nebraska Library Association and the Nebraska Regional Library Systems just got word that we received a grant from Nebraska Library Commission to help with the costs of chartering a bus to ALA in Chicago this summer. So, Nebraska librarians are going on a road trip to ALA. Woo hoo! We’re excited and we’ll get promotional information together soon. In the meantime, if this sounds of interest, please let us know. As a requirement for the grant we’ll need to get at least 30 Nebraska riders – which we’re pretty confident we can accomplish. Plans are to leave on June 27^th and return on July 2^nd.  We’re not sure at this point whether or not we’ll need to charge riders a fee – but if we do, at the most it’d be in the range of $50 to $100. We hope to get more details out soon to begin promoting this opportunity, but wanted to get the word out now as we realize advanced notice can be helpful in making plans to attend. If you have questions – let us know and we’ll try and answer.  Denise Harders, rvlsadmin@inebraska.com, Republican Valley Library System, 2727 West 2^nd Street, #233, Hastings, NE 68901, 402-462-1975, 402-462-1974 (Fax), 800-569-4961 (Toll-Free), 402-705-1409 (Cell)
