Hi all -? We are scheduling our fall meeting for Tuesday, September 27, here at our Downey offices. Our standard meeting will run 1:00-3:00 PM as before, but we've lined up a very?special author appearance directly following our meeting, from 3:00-4:00, that I don't think you'll want to miss (hence the late-September instead of early-October date). Stay tuned as I'll soon be posting another announcement regarding the author who's coming and give you all a chance to pre-register for that event.? You should be receiving a message from Andres Ortiz soon with some questions about what we want this fall meeting to look like. I want to be sure that plenty of time is allowed for true networking, so please look for his post and respond when you can.? Thanks, Jennifer Ormsby

For the Fall LA-LMN meeting: For the first half we were considering inviting a guest teacher to come and discuss starting Makerspaces on a budget. For the second half of the meeting, we thought breaking into small discussion groups might be helpful. Based on the survey results, Collection Development, Digital Citizenship/Information Literacy, and Library Funding and Grants were the most popular topics around which we could discuss the following: tips and tricks current challenges/burning questions best practices resources (sharing) Please respond to this post with your thoughts and ideas. Please note, the fall meeting will be immediately followed by an author event, more details to follow.

Hi all -? I'm thrilled to announce a book talk and signing by Jay Asher, author of Thirteen Reasons Why, directly after our fall meeting. We have limited space, so I wanted to give you all an opportunity to sign up before we start promoting the event. You may register for the author event?here?and the fall LA-LMN meeting here.? Thanks, Jennifer Ormsby
