<p>The Library Leadership <span class="amp">&</span> Administration Association (<span class="caps">LLAMA</span>) and United for Libraries are requesting feedback via a
<a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/united-llama-survey">survey</a> as they work together to develop a pre- or post-conference event on fundraising for the 2013 American Library Association (<span class="caps">ALA</span>) Conference, in addition to webinars
on fundraising.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>More and more, libraries are complementing tax support with fundraising efforts. As services become increasingly diverse, so too are the funding streams to support them. An event at the 2013
<span class="caps">ALA</span> Annual Conference, which will be planned by <span class="caps">
LLAMA</span> and United for Libraries, will bring together experts in fundraising to help librarians and library fundraisers learn how to become more effective in their efforts. In addition,
<span class="caps">LLAMA</span> and United for Libraries are developing webinars about library fundraising. In order to deliver outstanding programming and webcasts,
<span class="caps">LLAMA</span> and United for Libraries are requesting responses to a brief, quick
<a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/united-llama-survey">survey</a>. The deadline to complete the survey is
<strong>Oct. 1, 2012</strong>. To access the survey, visit <a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/united-llama-survey">
