<div dir="auto">If I could make a suggestion....I live in Joliet IL. Peoria is quite a hike for me and with no subs and teacher shortage it makes going to Peoria totally impossible. Having the presentations available virtually would enable so many more people to attend the conference and of course there sould be a virtual fee. Just something to consider for the future for folks who can't physically attend. The only blessing that has come out of this pandemic is that we have been forced to live and do outside the box. Thanks for your consideration. <div dir="auto">Patty kulesza <br><div dir="auto"><div dir="auto"><br></div></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Oct 9, 2021, 8:13 AM Conference Publicity (South) AISLE via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><br></div><div dir="auto">There are no plans for a virtual conference this year.</div><div dir="auto"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(0,0,0)"> </span><span style="font-family:Arial;white-space:pre-wrap;color:rgb(0,0,0)">AISLE is committed to providing the safest conference going experience possible.
