We know that libraries across the country are collaborating with their community partners to provide quality information services to all its citizens. The 2000 Diversity Fair provides an opportunity for these initiatives to be showcased. All ALA conferees are eligible to exhibit. Participants must be registered for conference at the time of the fair. Past applicants may apply.
Applications are limited to one per library.
Abstracts must detail the implementation, the degree to which the initiative has succeeded, and its potential uses by other libraries. All entries will be included in a 2000 Diversity Fair Notebook, available at the fair, along with abstracts and contact information. The extended deadline for receipt of entry forms is April 1, 2000. Selected applicants will be invited to exhibit at the 2000 Diversity Fair. The Diversity Fair Committee is chaired by Jeff Coghill, McNeese State University, Lake Charles, LA, a member of the OLOS Advisory Committee.
