Andi showed the group a poster with Did You Know facts relating to student research for the Research Symposium. She will follow up about printing and displaying.

Andi is collecting names of all of those who plan on attending the ILA / ACRL Spring Conference on May 25. If anybody is interested in attending, please let her know. We will register with one payment sometime between May 12 – 18.
