[Dspace-general] A.L.A. program on Harnessing Millennial Learning Strategies to Market Your Library

[Bernard Karon]

Good afternoon,

For those of you who will be travelling to Anaheim later this month
for A.L.A. Annual, here is a program that may be of interest to you.
Topics to be covered include gaming, Second Life and Milennials.
There have been aspects of these subjects as topics of discussion
on many of these electronic lists in recent months.

Are You in the Game? Harnessing Millennial Learning Strategies to Market
Your Library

ALA Annual Conference, Anaheim, CA,
Saturday, June 28, 2008, 8:00 am to 10:00 am,
Disneyland Hotel
in the Disneyland Center Ballroom located on 1150 Magic Way

Don't miss this Hot Topic presented by LAMA Public Relations and
Marketing Section (PRMS). Co-presenters Tammy Allgood, Arizona State
University Libraries, and Marisa Duarte, Fresno County Public Library,
will discuss using gaming and Second Life in engaging and drawing in
millennial learners. After the speakers' formal presentations,
participants will break into small groups for discussions facilitated by
the speakers. Each group will be given a sample idea to discuss and work
on in their group. These groups will then share their ideas and
strategies with the full group.

I Hope to see you then! All the best.
-- Bernie Karon
