We are excited to have Sally Eck from Portland State University talking to us about "Interrupting Oppression in Our Everyday Lives."

The SSD blog is back!
Unfortunately we haven't been able to add content to our blog for a few years. But we finally found the old login info and now we are back!
We apologize for this long silence and any confusion it may have caused. We plan to start posting regularly again.
Here are a few announcements:
The current SSD Executive Board list has been updated. There are still several positions open.
Our next board meeting is Friday, June 12th at 11:00 am.
Unfortunately, Covid-19 has made it necessary to cancel the 2020 Support Staff Division Conference.
We will be able to hold the 2021 conference at Timberline, however! More on this in another post.
An opportunity that will be ending soon - scroll down the right side of the blog to SSD Scholarships. We have three scholarships, $150 each, intended to help support staff pursue professional development and learning opportunities. Clicking on the link will take you to information about the scholarships and the application form. The deadline is coming up fast on May 25th.
In the meantime, here are some other ways to connect with the Oregon Library Association Support Staff Division.
Best wishes to you and your families as Oregon starts to re-open.
May we all be back working in our libraries, safely, and soon!
