ACRL STS scholarships

From Kate Zoellner, STS Assessment Committee Member:

ACRL's Science and Technology Section (STS) is offering two scholarships for recent STS members to attend a preconference on Assessment that the section has organized prior to ALA's Annual conference this year. More details can be found at:
http://www.ala.org/ala/acrl/aboutacrl/acrlsections/sciencetech/stscommittees/preconfscholarship.htm

It should be a great preconference, a timely topic with coverage of assessment for various areas of librarianship. Note that the speakers originally advertised have changed (i.e., Adam Smith from Google will NOT be there):

The speakers will now be:
Fred Heath
Dave Baca (qualitative assessment and interviews)
David Consiglio (survey construction)
Peggy Johnson (assessing collections)
Lisa Hinchliffe (assessing instruction)
Brian Quigley (usability testing)
