Never been to an ONA conference? This session is just for you. How do you connect with conference veterans? How do you choose between an inspiring talk and that practical training you had your eye on? And how can you interact with the tech toys in the Midway? We'll make sure you're equipped to get the most out of your ONA experience. Don't forget to bring your ONA #1 button -- your first-timer badge of honor.
