Thank you! https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/53S579J More information about ARLIS/NA conference childcare: In order to make the annual conference more family-friendly and accessible for working parents-particularly for those with nursing infants-ARLIS/NA and the Art Librarian Parents and Caregivers (ALPACA) special interest group is trialing a two-year conference childcare program. Debuting at the 2017 New Orleans conference, this initiative offers on-site childcare during the main conference program and allows nursing mothers to drop by and feed their children between sessions. Five children used the service in NOLA, and parents were very enthusiastic about having the option to simultaneously manage professional activities and parenting responsibilities. To keep the cost of on-site care low, the program is funded through a manageable charge to parents and special funding from the Society. "Providing conference childcare for ARLIS/NA members distinguishes the Society as part of an emerging class of professional groups and companies who acknowledge the challenges working parents face and who are endeavoring to provide accommodations for the healthy balance of work and family life." --Eumie Imm Stroukoff, ARLIS/NA president Anna Simon Art Reference and Instruction Librarian Kohler Art Library University of Wisconsin-Madison 608-263-2257 [log in to unmask] www.library.wisc.edu/art/ @KohlerArtLib<https://twitter.com/KohlerArtLib?lang=en> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/membership/join-arlisna Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
