*Community and Fundamentals* *Twitter: #sladc* *DC/SLA Open House and Volunteer Appreciation Celebration* *Sponsored by Bloomberg BNA, ACS Publications, and LAC Group * Our Volunteers have made 2013 another fabulous year for DC/SLA! It's time we recognize them for all their hard work and celebrate how engaged our library community is! Join us for DC/SLA's Open House and Volunteer Appreciation Celebration! Whether you're a new member, have been a member for years, or you're considering joining, this is one event you won't want to miss! Our committees and groups will be staffing tables providing attendees with info about all the amazing work they do and more information on how to get involved. Every DC/SLA volunteer in attendance will be recognized for their contributions. We'll have plenty of food, alcohol, raffles, and prizes for attendees. As an added bonus not only is the event *FREE to EVERYONE* but for the first time ever you'll have a chance to learn about the DC/SLA Community by playing* DC/SLA Family Feud*. After we've had time to network we'll host several rounds of *DC/SLA Family Feud* where teams of attendees work together for a chance to earn even more raffle tickets!
