2009 ALA Annual Conference Schedule

After I decided that my next move would be to Kansas City, my lovely free weekends that were reserved for blogging and making calzones quickly transformed into frantic packing and road trips to find/ set up a new apartment.  Now that that’s done, ALA Annual starts tomorrow.  AHHH!!!!  How did this happen so fast- the internship is nearly over.

Below is a tentative schedule of events and meetings I’ll be attending.  I still haven’t made plans for most of Sunday, so feel free to offer suggestions.  Hope to see some of you there!
