Happy New Year to all members

The ALIA Health Libraries Australia Executive would like to wish all members a productive and fulfilling year ahead.

Conference
The main HLA professional development and networking event for the year will be held in September in Alice Springs as part of the ALIA Biennial Conference. HLA will be holding a health library professional development day on Tuesday 2 September followed by health library conference day on Wednesday 3 September. This is a fantastic opportunity to catch up with friends and colleagues, update your skills and knowledge AND see some of beautiful Central Australia! Register your interest today.

Bulletin
Health Libraries Australia will continue to publish HLA News. Four issues are planned for this year and thanks go to our sponsor, EBSCO Australia. Submissions are welcome and should be forwarded to the editor, Melanie Kammermann.

Local Events
Keep an eye out for local HLA events happening in your region. These will be advertised on the aliaHEALTH e-list, the ALIA events calendar and on this blog.

Your Executive
The HLA Executive will continue to progress HLA's strategic plan, and as always, the Executive welcomes your input whether it be to provide feedback, make suggestions or raise professional concerns. Contact details can be found on Vital Link.
