Silent Auction: Support CLA and Library Advocacy
It’s back! Check out our Third Annual Silent Auction and bid on fun, unique and handmade gifts for the holidays, or pick-up something for yourself. Stop by the booth to bid on a host of great items, travel packages, and experiences, and support CLA at the same time. Thanks to you, we raised over $4,000 for CLA last year and we hope to beat that number this year. Auction items will once again include unique experiences, gift baskets, handcrafted items, vendor prizes and more! Come visit us in the Exhibit Hall.
We welcome donations to the Silent Auction! To donate an item, please contact the CLA office at info@cla-net.org.

California Library Association Membership Booth
The CLA Membership Booth is a one-stop-shop for membership information, conference details, and professional development resources (and prizes!). We will have a variety of offerings this year including meet-and-greets with CLA Board Members, information on CLA’s varied Interest Groups, interactive career development programs, and a preview of the upcoming Read–for the Win! summer reading theme from our summer reading partner, iRead. Every day we’re going to be offering a new activity and prize and we’ll be having a blast on social media as well. #CLAreimagine
