NEW for 2013:

Due to requests from the attendee evaluations and comments that were 
given in person, we are making some scheduling and formatting changes 
for 2013.

Updated for 2013! Poster Sessions and Conference Happy Hour:

The 2013 Poster Sessions will have a brand new time slot and venue that 
eliminates conflicts with other conference presentations. They will be 
scheduled immediately following the afternoon plenary session on 
Thursday and Friday in the Café Bistro of the Courtyard Marriott. But 
best of all, the Poster Sessions will run while the Conference Happy 
Hour is in full swing in the adjacent Outdoor Courtyard area. Conference 
attendees will be able to mix and mingle in a relaxed setting while 
being afforded the opportunity to learn about the latest innovative 
projects at libraries throughout the county. There will be no concurrent 
sessions held during this time slot, allowing attendees to focus on the 
ideas presented in the posters and network at Happy Hour.

Changes coming soon! Saturday Morning Tech Talks:

We are in the process of re-structuring the Saturday morning Fast Tech 
Talks to better provide a wide breadth of content on new and updated 
products that are of interest to the Charleston Conference community. 
Look for more information to come soon, including a name change that 
more accurately reflects the change in focus. We're excited about this 
new format and look forward to sharing it with you.

Be sure to include plans to stay for Saturday in your travel itinerary - 
you won't want to miss it!
