Changes to the National Docent Symposium Council Kaleidoscope

ndsclogo blk-Small-ReadyFor a number of years the National Docent Symposium Council published a bi-annual newsletter on its original website.  It is our intention to post new articles regularly on this new website and, therefore, the Kaleidoscope will no longer exist.

Back issues of our newsletter contain articles which still provide interesting and valuable information for both new and experienced docents. We have, therefore, archived the Kaleidoscope issues and they are available to you.  In order to make it easier for you to find the issue you want, here is a list of featured articles and their dates. If you click on the article that interests you, you can download the appropriate Kaleidoscope issue.
