2014 LITA Forum Student Registration Rate Available

[Ken Varnum]

LITA is offering a special student registration rate to the 2014 LITA
National Forum <http://www.ala.org/lita/conferences/forum/2014> for a
limited number of graduate students enrolled in ALA accredited programs.
The Forum will be held November 5-8, 2014 at the Hotel Albuquerque
<http://www.hotelabq.com/> in Albuquerque, NM.  Learn more about the Forum
here <http://www.ala.org/lita/conferences/forum/2014>.

In exchange for a discounted registration, students will assist the LITA
organizers and the Forum presenters with on-site operations.  *This year’s
theme is “Transformation: From Node to Network.”*  We are anticipating an
attendance of 300 decision makers and implementers of new information
technologies in libraries.

The selected students will be expected to attend the full LITA National
Forum, Thursday noon through Saturday noon.  This does not include the
pre-conferences on Thursday and Friday.  You will be assigned a variety of
duties, but you will be able to attend the Forum programs, which include 3
keynote sessions, 30 concurrent sessions, and a dozen poster presentations.

*The special student rate is $180* – half the regular registration rate for
LITA members.  This rate includes a Friday night reception at the hotel,
continental breakfasts, and Saturday lunch.  To get this rate you must
apply and be accepted per below.

To apply for the student registration rate, please provide the following
information:

   1. Complete contact information including email address,
   2. The name of the school you are attending, and
   3. 150 word (or less) statement on why you want to attend the 2014 LITA
   Forum

Please send this information no later than *September 30, 2014* to
lita at ala.org, with 2014 LITA Forum Student Registration Request in the
subject line.

Those selected for the student rate will be notified no later than *October
3, 2014*
