The UP Regional Library Conference was today September 14th 2023 in the Lake Superior State University (LSSU) campus at the Sault Ste. Marie. Mikel Classen was the organizer of the “bookbag giveway” in which each of the 85 librarians attending conference received a complementary random selection of 3 to 4 books from UPPAA authors who selflessly contributed their books to the event. Special thanks to Sharon Kennedy and Rich Hill who assisted with the deliveries. Here’s a few pictures to show you the scene
