Registration and a Green Conference
Please check back as registration of delegates is coming soon.
The 2010 Conference Committee has made the decision to make the Saskatchewan Libraries Conference “greener.” As part of this change the conference brochure will be provided on our website in digital format only. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause but hope it will help reduce the negative impact on the environment by reducing the volume of waste paper produced by the conference and the use of inks which can be harmful. We are also encouraging delegates to send in registrations electronically if possible.
