This event has already occurred! You are invited to watch the recording on our YouTube channel or send us any questions you have to .
Join us on Friday, February 26th from 10:00 to 11:30 am for our 2021 Annual Membership Meeting! This is an opportunity for us to look back at 2020 and take a moment to appreciate the ingenuity and fearlessness and tenacity of the Wisconsin library community in responding to the challenges of the year.
We are honored to be able to highlight a few instances, among many, of that work in our member community:
- Angie Bodzislaw, Director, Spooner Memorial Library
- Michael Doylen, Associate Vice Provost and Director of Libraries, UW-Milwaukee
- Svetha Hetzler, Director, Sun Prairie Public Library
- Zander Miller, Digital Strategies Librarian, Kenosha Public Library
- Paula Norman, Library Media– Instructional Technology Coordinator, Tomahawk School District
Additionally, at WiLS, we have been working hard to do the same for our staff and our members, to pivot and respond to changing needs and new challenges, to find new ways to collaborate, to look inward at our own practices and evaluate if they are the most humane and most equitable ways to do our work.
We want to share all of this with you! Please register to attend our free and virtual Annual Membership Meeting and let us know if you have any questions at all at .
