My ALA schedule

After wading through the preliminary programme, various emails and websites, the official ALA planner (hmmm) and so forth, I’ve put together something of a schedule. Very tentative, but these are mostly definites. Radical Reference is putting on several interesting programmes during the conference, I should be at the dinner and will get to some of the library education discussions.

I’ve flying out on Sunday, and it looks like I will be taking my iBook after all so if you want to meet up, IM or email me.
