We are pleased to say that our committee planned and executive a wonderful program for the 2011 ALA Annual Conference. The Small Business Financing Forum was led by a panel of experts that included representatives from the Louisiana Small Business Administration and local financial institutions. They covered different kinds of financing available to small businesses around the country.
In other news, the committee plans to publish two new Public Libraries Briefcase issues by the end of the year.
Elizabeth Malafi, Chair 2010-2011
