Sign up for the virtual AspenCat Conference!

This year, we will be meeting together online. Our goal has been to create a virtual experience that draws on elements from a typical in-person conference while also trying to adapt to the virtual setting. The best way we can do this is to ask for your full participation. As always, the AspenCat Conference is FREE! We look forward to seeing you October 27, from 12:00-4:00 PM! [Read more…]

Have other courier questions specific to your library? We’ve created procedural details through our page Courier Restart: So Much to Know! and as always, welcome your questions via our Contact Library Courier page.
