ANNOUNCEMENTS

Creative Net supplied speakers for the ACLB's Keeping Books Alive conference held on Saturday 26 November at the RACV Club in Melbourne. Speakers were: Michael Salmon, Jackie Kerin, Phil Kettle, Susan Halliday, Gabrielle Wang, Dianne Bates, Susanne Gervay, Paul Collins, Meredith Costain, Michael Hyde, Tony Thompson and Michael Panckridge. Feedback was brilliant. The following email arrived today: 

"Thank you so much for the wonderful day and night at the seminar. I was so impressed with the standard of the seminar and thought that those who did not attend certainly missed out of a first class day and night. I travelled from Rainbow which is a 10 hour return trip but not once did I think why have I come today? I have attended many [name withheld] conferences in Melbourne but this was so much better. An intimate setting and a chance to speak with the authors was greatly appreciated.

"The after conference story-teller [Jackie Kerin] was brilliant and the dinner was very interesting. I now have gained knowledge re what the dinner & awards were all about and will encourage students to enter the various sections. I do hope you will run this seminar again next year and look forward to coming once again" Leonie Clarke [Rainbow Secondary College].
