Interested in volunteering for the 2009 conference? It’s never too early to let us know! APLA conferences run smoothly thanks to the assistance of dedicated volunteers who carry out an array of tasks including staffing the registration desk, convening sessions, setting up IT and A/V equipment, just to name a few. If you are interested in helping out next June send your name and contact information to Debbie Costelo (debbie.costelo@nscc.ca) and we will contact you prior to the conference.
