ROOM
SET-UP
The customary room
set-up is conference style; i. e., one large conference table, or
tables arranged in a U-shape, (depending on the size of the room).
For most meetings, you only need to check "conference" set-up if you
will have no food service, head table, or audio-visual
requirements.
OPEN AND
CLOSED MEETINGS
TLA
policy requires that all meetings are open (see TLA Bylaws Article
XIII, Section 3) except when personnel matters are being
discussed.
NON-TLA
GROUPS MEETING AT ASSEMBLY
The Texas Library Association will
attempt to honor requests from NON-TLA groups for meeting space at
Annual Assembly, if the request comes from a group that is library
related and whose purpose is allied to TLA's. Priority for meeting
times and space will be given to TLA groups. Outside organizations
will be charged for any audio-visual equipment and/or catering
used.
