announced in ALA Conference Program. Spon­

in the Use of Libraries, and the Junior Col­

We’ve talked about goals and how to im­
prove instruction in use of libraries. We’re no 
longer talking, but going all the way with 
media this year. Explore techniques for com­
municating information with us this summer. 
Can you spare only twenty minutes for some 
practical help? We’ll have continuous showing 
of tapes, slides, etc., Wednesday night and 
Thursday morning. Computer demonstrations, 
video taping discussions. Compare, evaluate, 
stay as long as you like. Seek advice from our 
consultants, a rare opportunity. Ask about costs, 
choice of format, point of use vs large group. 
Get “hands on” experience with the equipment 
and materials. Catalogs with complete infor­
mation to all participants.
