Southeast Regional Evergreen Conference, October 8-9, 2014


The State Library of North Carolina and The Library of Virginia are co-hosting the first ever Southeast Regional Evergreen Conference (SEREC). This conference is designed specifically for front-line library staff.

It will provides an opportunity to

  • get together with library staff from other consortia and libraries who use Evergreen
  • attend formal presentations
  • participate in focused round table discussions
  • discuss topics of common interest

The initial target group for the conference was the states of South Carolina, Virginia, North Carolina, and Georgia. As we have given our library staffs enough time to register for the conference, the conference is now open to others who may be interested in attending or presenting.

The conference will be held on October 8 and 9 at the Holiday Inn North Raleigh Hotel and Conference Center, 2804 Highwoods Blvd, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604.

The registration fee is $25. To register online, visit the conference home page.
