What is NETSL?

The New England Technical Services Librarians (NETSL) is a section of the
New England Library Association (NELA <https://www.nelib.org/sections>).
Our mission is to bring together all persons interested in technical
services for the exchange of ideas and discussion of problems.

What topics are we looking for?

We're seeking proposals for 60-minute breakout or workshop sessions
and 7-minute
lightning talks related to our 2022 theme: "Our Work Supports Everyone:
Demonstrating the Value of Technical Services." Technical services staff
