Annual Conference
Colorado Libraries for Early Literacy is committed to training and staff development. During our annual conference we provide workshops, keynote speakers and networking to anyone who is involved or wants to be involved with early literacy. Past conferences have had information about brain research, community outreach, sensory storytimes and much more.
In 2020 the conference was offered virtually in response to the pandemic, and will be virtual again in 2021. CLEL also expanded to a two-day conference, offering a Leadership Institute in addition to the general conference for the first time in 2020. Due to it's success CLEL will again offer a Leadership Institute in 2021, and add a half-day Pre-Conference Workshop.
We hope you join us!
