  • Visit us in Louisville - June 4-5th!

    Posted by Joe Hardesty on 3/5/2009, 3:40 pm

    Dear Fellow Cooperating Collection Supervisors,

    On behalf of the staff and administration of Bellarmine University I cordially invite you and fellow colleagues to join me and my Cooperating Collection co-host, Joe Hardesty of the Louisville Free Public Library in attending the first ever Virtual Network Days conference – in person!!

    If you would rather meet face-to-face with fellow Cooperating Collection supervisors - without having to travel to Cleveland in the fall - - then this may be just the alternative for you!

    Louisville is convenient - just 2.5 hours from Dayton, 3 hours from Nashville, 3.5 hours from Charleston and 4 hours from St. Louis and Knoxville - many Cooperating Collections exists within this region.

    Louisville is affordable – a number of economical hotels are close to our host site (and you won’t have to pay for parking!)

    Louisville is fun – arrive early (or stay after) to tour historic Bardstown or beautiful horse farms, go to the races at world renown Churchill Downs or enjoy the exciting night life in the heart of the city at Fourth Street Live!

    Between now and June 4th, Joe and I, along with this years Virtual Network Days planners at the Foundation Center, will be working together to make this first ever Virtual Network Days conference an exciting and professionally rewarding experience for you.
    All you have to do is save the date and say YES!

    Virtual Network Days Conference: June 4 – 5, 2009
    Location: W.L. Lyons Library, Bellarmine University campus, Louisville, KY.

    For more information, please feel free to contact…
    Debi Griffin, CC supervisor at Bellarmine University at: dgriffin@ bellarmine.edu
    or
    Joe Hardesty, CC supervisor at Louisville Free Public Library at Hardesty@ lfpl.org

    Please contact either of us by May 25th to say you will be attending. See YOU in June!!

    Kindest Regards,
    Joe Hardesty (on behalf of Debi Griffin)

      Joe, your enthusiasm is quite contagious!
      Seriously we'll be sending out formal invitations to all CC supervisors along with a preliminary agenda within the next few weeks. We do want to encourage any of you who want to do what Joe is doing -- invite the CC supervisors in your local area to meet in your space and attend Virtual Network Days as a group. It's definitely more fun that way! Do let us know if you plan to issue such an invitation.

        Dear Judy and Joe,

        Your invitation sounds wonderful. I would like to go back down to Tenn. and have never been to Louisville. I have been to Nashville and Knoxville, both wonderful experiences, especially at the Tennessee State Archives and the TVA. Have you got any ideas about reasonable hotels near the site of the meeting? I shall also have to check air fare. Kudos to you both!
