Have you ever seen a space satellite up close, or wondered how to fool enemy radar? Come learn and discover with the SLA Maryland Chapter on October 22 at the National Electronics Museum: We'll tour exhibits that focus on the entire electronics industry, ranging from telegraph and radio to radar and satellites, a lunar TV camera and a working amateur ham radio station. Oh, and there's a research library, too! A networking buffet of fruits, cheeses, hot hors d'oeuvres will be provided, along with cash bar refreshments to enhance the ambience.
What an energizing setting to highlight the evening's speaker, Gloria Zamora, President of the Special Libraries Association! Gloria will discuss outcomes of the SLA Alignment Project and describe strategies, tools, and clear compelling language that we all can use to give ourselves a competitive advantage at work and spark a stronger recognition for our profession. Her message speaks to all librarians, records managers, and information professionals across sectors of business, government, law, medicine, academia, or wherever we strategically use information to advance the missions of our organizations. Prepare to be recharged!
