All-School Student Holiday Party, December 1st, 6pm, West Hollywood Public Library

The SLA Southern California Chapter would like to invite you to a very special holiday event, for students by students.
 
Co-sponsored by the Los Angeles County Library and LA as Subject, and organized by and for the student groups of the CSUN/UNT, UCLA, and SJSU library school programs, this party aims to bring together local students of all library, information, and archival programs to mix and mingle and celebrate the holidays together. Alumni and professionals are welcome to attend as well, and you need not be affiliated with the local programs to attend. We welcome students and alumni from any out-of-state or online library, information, or archival program.
 
WHEN: December 1st, 6:00 - 8:30pm
WHERE: West Hollywood Public Library
Dinner and drinks will be provided. Attendees will have exclusive access to the West Hollywood Public Library during the event.
 
Attendance is FREE if you are currently enrolled in a library, information, or archival program or if you've graduated within the last 5 years. Professionals are welcome, and may register for $15. (There is no need to pre-pay. Cash and checks will be accepted at the door).
 
Details:
The evening is for connecting so it will be fairly unstructured. Some options in the planning thus far include the following ideas:
 
-Gathering points for library students and alumni from an institution to find each other. 
-Chats with the consultant who shepherded the West Hollywood Library design and project to completion.
-Speed chat with library professionals - a fun and fast way to meet and chat with some information professionals about their jobs and anything else you want to ask them. Think of it as 'speed dating' for your career investigations and aspirations.
-A learn-more-about-your-colleagues scavenger hunt event.
These are subject to change so you have to show up to find out what happens!
