September Meeting: Best in Show
This is just an early reminder that there is an ICON meeting
at 2:00 on Friday, September 7th at Bellevue University. Similar to
last year’s program, our theme is “Best in Show” which means that you have a
chance to brag on what your library has been up to in the past year. Put your
thinking caps on!
