Hello CALA NE Chapter members,
CALA Northeast Chapter is the largest community with over 80 members. In this new "Online Showcase," we want to highlight what our members have been working on in the past year and a half.
We recognize that the past year and half has been out of anyone’s control due to the pandemic, but we want you to take this moment to submit how you’d like your 2020-2021 to be remembered. What was noteworthy for you in 2020-2021?
Submit anything you’d like!
Here are some suggestions:
A paragraph reflecting on what was noteworthy for you, with an image
A recipe of what you’ve cooked that brought comfort to you
A valuable piece of advice or lesson you picked up attending a webinar
A LibGuide, or instructional materials you’ve created
A poster for an event you were involved in, and photographs/screenshots
Anything else you’ve been paid to do in your day job
We will continue to review and accept submissions until June 30, 2022. We definitely want to hear from you!
p/s: For your older scholarly works and educational materials, CALASYS is ideal for adding your works! You can create a CALASYS account and start depositing. Do review the CALASYS Self-Contribution Training Slides beforehand.
Sincerely,
Your CALA NE Officers
