Letter from CLA President Jack Fritts

Dear CLA members and friends,

During times like this, it is more important than ever for communities to come together, even when it is online or by phone. With many CLA members staying at home, we are making the March 2020 issue of Catholic Library World online, open access. The issue is also being mailed as usual. We want everyone to be able to see the relevant conference content before our virtual conference on April 2.

I encourage everyone to invite colleagues and friends to read the journal issue and to join us for the Spring 2020 virtual conference. With so many conferences and professional development opportunities being canceled at this time, the CLA conference will offer an opportunity to connect, learn, and develop professionally. The conference is free for CLA members and only $25 for nonmembers. “All are welcome.”

Participants will be able to earn a certificate of attendance that can be used as proof of participation. Click here to register. Please consider forwarding this message to a friend or colleague who would be interested in reading the journal and attending our conference.

I hope to see you there,

Jack Fritts, CLA President
