Las Vegas Program Is Not A Gamble The program for the 2014 AJL Conference is shaping up to be amazing! Two special features this year will be manuscript evaluations by a literary agent and a writing workshop by Groner-Wikler Scholarship winner Barbara Krasner. Both of these programs are available for an extra fee as listed on the registration form. We have just added another poetry reading to our TED talks. This one will be by Aaron Taub who will be sharing some of his poetry. M.E. Silverman will also read his poetry. Two other TED talks will explore folktales. In addition, Shuli Berger will speak about her parent’s childhood Yiddish books. Schelley Dardashti will share information about a Medieval Spanish Archive. We will have two plenary sessions this year—Lisa Hansel will speak on “Bringing Research to Life: The Crucial Role of Librarians in Meeting—and Exceeding—the Common Core Standards,” and Emile Schrijver will speak about “Between Being-Wise and Not-Knowing-What-To-Ask: Jewish Librarianship and Digital Humanities.”
Full details about the program will be posted soon on the website. REGISTER NOW! There may even be an Elvis sighting....... Susan Dubin 2014 AJL Conference Chair
