FRIENDS OF CANADIAN LIBRARIES 

Friends' Day  in Victoria
June 19 2004

The Canadian Library Association Annual Conference in Victoria this June provided us with another opportunity to host a Friends" Day Program, and conduct our Annual General Meeting. The annual meeting was teleconferenced.

The conference theme this year is Celebrating Our Community: Sharing Our Values and Sharing our Value. Our poster Friends on a Mission @ your library will demonstrate how Friends of Libraries are a recognized and valued partner in the library community, sharing the vision, values and strategic directions of the library they serve.  In addition to showcasing our particular accomplishments, and those of our award winning Friends groups across Canada, this poster will provide an opportunity to reveal details of our new Strategic Plan.

We will enjoy an interactive session designed to outline the role of Friends in Canadian libraries, and the proven value they bring to the library community.
