Dear ARLIS members,
Please join us for our third Twitter chat TONIGHT at 9:00 PM EST. We had a lively discussion last time and we encourage more participants in ANY library setting
to join in this time!
The topic for this Twitter chat will be focused on Librarian and Artist collaborations. Beth Morris will moderate this chat and she has compiled a list of
possible collaborative projects that could be expanded upon further during the discussion. No reading is necessary to participate and an open dialogue will be the focus in an effort to brainstorm creative ideas and topics for further collaborative efforts
for librarians and artists. This live chat will be archived in the ARLIS learning portal for future reference, as well as Storified.
