As IHLS embarks on its 9th year as an organization, we are energized by the possibility of further refining our current member services and expanding our horizons. Areas of focus for FY2020 include: an enhanced web presence for IHLS, a focus on public library trustee training, delivery training for all members, grant writing workshops for IHLS member libraries and focused outreach to our school library community.
This work is laid out in the FY20 Budget and Operational Plan. But before the final submission to the IHLS Board of Directors and the Illinois State Library, we’d like to hear from you.
One-Day Workshop Offered June 12 & 13, 2019
Mark your calendars for November 7, 2019: IHLS Member Day is BACK—BIGGER and BETTER than ever! Immerse yourself in a jam-packed day of library learning designed just for you—this year with expanded tracks! Update your knowledge, find new tools, and meet and share ideas with others from the diverse library world of Central and Southern Illinois, including public, school, academic, and special libraries and IHLS staff. FREE for IHLS members.
Each public library board is required to take action each year on whether to participate in the non-resident program and to determine the fee for non-resident cards.
