Getting the Word Out!

Dear SWALLT members – Are you going to some of these conferences listed below?  If you are, it would be wonderful if you could spread the word about SWALLT and all the good things we do! 

Judy Franz or myself are happy to arm you with flyers about SWALLT or IALLT for display tables or, if you are feeling inspired, you can have an information table at the conference.  Don’t feel constrained to just the conferences listed here, if you attend other venues where folks might be interested in SWALLT, I’m happy to send you flyers.

Please get in touch if you would be interested in spreading the word!
