Greetings,
It is that time. If you want to go to the PLA conference in Minneapolis, please submit paperwork before the end of this week (by Friday 12/14). PLA is, in my opinion, the best conference for public librarians. So, if you are interested in attending, please submit your paperwork. It is important that you use the new (city) travel request form and not the HPL one currently on the Intranet. If you need this form, e-mail Bea Duran and she
will send it to you. Here are the figures to be used if you intend to attend the entire conference.
| Registration: | $ | 260.00 | Advanced Registration ends February 2008. |
| Airfare: | $ | 437.00 | Per Advantage Travel Inc, http://viaadvantage.com |
| Hotel: | $ | 325.00 | Based on half of double occupancy rate for 4 nights |
| Meals: | $ | 160.00 | $40 per day for 4 days (includes tips for meals). |
| Ground Trans.: | $ | 50.00 | |
| Other: | $ | 50.00 | Tips (cab fare, bell service, etc. – max of 15% each) |
| Total: | $ | 1282.00 | |
Note: These estimates are based upon a March 25 arrival and May 29 departure date and do not include pre-conference sessions, ticketed events or dinners. Airfare is subject to change.
Make sure to indicate the day you will leave and day you will return and whether you want to pay for registration or want HPL to pay. If you are not staying the dates listed, or if you are planning on attending a pre-conference, please adjust the figures accordingly. If you need assistance with the form, Bea and I will be glad to assist.
This is an exciting conference and I am really looking forward to as many of us as possible going and sharing what we learn with our colleagues.
