Going to ALA Midwinter? Share with us and win!

If you’re attending the ALA Midwinter conference this month, keep an eye out for new or innovative library products that WiLS should know about. We’re always on the lookout for what’s new in the library world for possible inclusion in our cooperative purchasing service. But no one from WiLS will be at this year’s conference. So, we’re looking to you to share anything cool or innovative you see from the vendors there.  Sharing with us will enter you into a drawing for a $10.00 Visa gift card!

Entering couldn’t be easier. If you learn about a new database, eBook platform, streaming service or anything that you think WiLS should know about, snap a picture of it!  Then, send the photo to and you’ll be entered into the drawing.  Later in November, we’ll select a winner from all of the entries.

Not only do you stand to win $10.00, but you’ll be helping to boost the signal on something new and exciting for WiLS members. It might even lead to a new consortium purchase!

Statistics tell us that most New Year’s resolutions are abandoned within two weeks of the new year. Today is the 13th day of the new year, so now is the time to offer your patrons some help in keeping theirs! Every month in 2020, WiLS will be highlighting resources that fit a theme.

In January , we are highlighting the theme of New Year’s Resolutions. We’ve hand-picked some resources from our vendor partners that we think fit in with this theme. Learn all about these great products before and don’t hesitate to contact us at with any questions or feedback! Read more
