Be sure to check out the ARLIS/NA Silent Auction at http://arlis2001.ucsd.edu where you can Browse the Donations. Donations have been coming in fast and furious. Thank you to all the individuals, business affiliates, and exhibitors who have already donated items. Your support is greatly appreciated!!! And thank you to Judith Herschman who is accepting donations and posting them to the website, as well as organizing the BIG EVENT. The ARLIS/NA Silent Auction will be held on Monday, April 2nd, 2001, from 5:30pm to 7:30pm, at the Wilshire Grand Hotel in Los Angeles. All proceeds from the Auction will go to the new ARLIS/NA Conference Speakers Fund, being launched at our 29th Annual Conference. I invite everyone to support the ARLIS/NA Conference Speakers Fund by donating an item to the Auction. There is still plenty of time. The deadline for submission of Donation Forms is March 15, 2001 (next Thursday). If you can meet this deadline, it would be much appreciated by the Auction organizers. That said -- late donations will not be refused. For more information, including a handy Donation Form, go to the website (above).
