Iowa IUG Meeting Call for Proposals (Iowa Innovative Users Group (Iowa City, Iowa - Sept 17, 2015)

The Iowa Innovative Users Group will be meeting Thursday, September 17th at the Iowa City Public Library and will have a Circulation focus.

We invite Circulation related presentations from Millennium/Sierra or Polaris libraries of 60 minutes in length, with some of that time set aside for questions. Ideas for forums or panel sessions to discuss a topic related to circulation are also of interest.  Big libraries, small libraries, public, academic, special - circulation and patron service are something we all have in common:

*         Loan rules, Holds, Fines or Demerits!  Attendees would love to hear your tips and tricks for what can be overwhelming and complicated.
*         Do you have Self-Check stations?  Tell us about them and what they have meant to your library.
*         Why not share a Circulation service, training, or specialty with other Innovative users in the state at the Iowa IUG Meeting?

Please send your proposal (Name, contact information, and a brief abstract or idea) to Sheryl Bissen, Iowa IUG Vice Chair/Chair Elect (bissen@grinnell.edu). Proposals are due July 10, 2015.

Thank you all again and we look forward to seeing your proposals!
