Conferences

This is the last week to register for the annual Ohio Library Support Staff Institute (OLSSI), which will be held online July 26-30th. As always, all library staff - both in Ohio and beyond - are welcome to join in.

This will be a free conference with a schedule that alternates between morning and afternoon sessions throughout the week; it is our hope that this format will accommodate as many schedules as possible. All sessions will be recorded for later viewing as well, so please feel free to tune in when it suits your schedule.

OLSSI is dedicated to the idea of a holistic institute that is part conference and part retreat; to this end, we will also hold online gatherings in the evenings to meet up, network, and have a little fun.

Stepping Up to 2021 Conference

Saturday, October 9, 2021
Westerville Central High School

OELMA Conference is on and in person! For the first time in over a year the librarians of Ohio are finally able to get back together for a day of exciting professional development opportunities! The date is set for October 9, 2021! It will be a one day conference but we already have some great things lined up including graphic novelist Derf Backderf, creator behind My Friend Dahmer, Trashed, and most recently Kent State: Four Dead in Ohio. Dhonielle Clayton, author of The Belles and Tiny Pretty Things (now a Netflix series!), and COO of the nonprofit organization We Need Diverse Books, will also be joining us virtually at the conference.
