The Catholic Library Association was excited to hold our fourth virtual conference this fall on October 17-18, 2019.

Our 2019 Fall Virtual Conference was entitled “Catholic Librarianship: Building a Culture of Encounter.” We enjoyed having Kerry Weber Lynch, author of Mercy in the City: How to Feed the Hungry, Give Drink to the Thirsty, Visit the Imprisoned, and Keep Your Day Job (Loyola Press), give our Keynote Presentation. We also enjoyed 12 breakout sessions, an Awards Presentation, and a Prayer Service for Departed Members of CLA.

Thank you to all of our speakers for giving presentations that left a lasting and positive impression on our attendees.

Congratulations to our Fall 2019 Award Recipients:
Mary A. Grant Volunteer Service Award 2019 Recipient: Cindy Marach
John Brubaker Award 2019 Recipient: Marty Miller

Thank you to all of those who joined us on October 17-18, 2019.
