SLANZA Web Conference opportunity for non-members

Kia ora koutou

SLANZA has a marvellous professional development opportunity for non-members.

We encourage school librarians who aren't currently SLANZA members to join up now. For one $75 membership, you will enjoy the benefits of being a SLANZA member for the rest of this year and all of 2022. The bonus is members can register for the SLANZA Web Conference Whakaohoho for just $100. 

The online conference Whakaohoho is being run as a webinar 26-29 November 2021. 

This is a great opportunity for schools to support their library staff with fantastic professional development. No travel and accommodation costs, plus three months to view the sessions at your leisure - so it is affordable and accessible.
