The next biennial conference of the School Library Association of Queensland is to be held from 21-23 September 2008 at All Hallows’ School, Brisbane. The conference brings together teacher-librarians, school library personnel and other educators interested in school libraries and aims to provide opportunities to confront, discuss and critically analyse the challenges and issues facing those working in the field today. The conference program will offer a range of sessions across theme-targeted days, which will allow delegates the flexibility of one day registration focussing on a particular strand or full registration covering all strands.

We look forward to seeing everyone in Brisbane, but until then, please do not hesitate to contact the conference secretariat and continue to visit this website for all your conference updates.
