ASLA Tasmania and CBCA (Tas branch) are collaborating this year for members and colleagues statewide to attend a 2008 joint conference Libraries 2L: Learning and Literature, which will take place in Hobart on 15 and 16 August 2008. All details are included in the attached flyer and registration form.
This is a significant event for Tasmania, and we urge you to support it with your attendance. See you there!
All information will be uploaded onto the two branch websites.
Keynote speakers include Dr Susan La Marca, Kevin Hennah, John Heffernan (Book Week celebratory dinner), and Carole Wilkinson. Young Melbourne author Jack Heath will speak to students on Friday 15 August at 11.00am. Jack is an entertaining, lively speaker who published his first novel at the age of 18. This will be a great motivational session for students in Years 8 to 10. Other speakers include Tony Flowers and Peter Gouldthorpe, Isobel Williams and Dr Ken Price.
