Hello, all! 

Is anyone planning on attending this? Looks like a worthwhile event if you can sneak away for the day.  I’ve saved my school district a significant amount of money on books, supplies, databases & Makerspace tech & furniture since I began taking full advantage of the available CLC vendor discounts (wish I started sooner!) Plus, there will be ‘swag bags’, lunch, prizes, etc. 
 😃

Take care, 
Carrie

Every time we survey our members, you always tell us you want us to provide more discounted contracts for the products and services you want for your library.


Did you know that we now work with more than 100 vendors to help you make the most of your purchasing dollars?


And we're holding this special event to help you make purchasing even easier!



When you attend the CLC Vendor Expo, you'll:


  • Gain a better understanding of how to use CLC contracts to get the most from your purchasing dollars


  • Meet new vendors, discovering new resources that could be just what your community needs


  • Get face time with your favorite vendors, asking your questions, building your relationships


  • Celebrate our first ever CLC Customer Service Award Winner (that you chose!)


  • Get a special Vendor Expo swag bag, filled with goodies from CLC vendors



  • Network with your colleagues from across the state


  • Have a chance to win fabulous prizes!



Our day is set up so you'll have the opportunity to attend six vendor presentations of your choice to learn more in depth how their products can help you better serve your communities.
