Digital Media in the Mainstream at ALA
by Terry Ballard
Late-June weather in Chicago can be hot or stormy, but the week of the ALA 2017 Annual Conference and Exhibition (June 22-27) was unusually mild and without a hint of rain. This worked out well for the attendees, and several vendors planned ice cream socials as a relief that turned out to be unneeded, but certainly not unappreciated.

Magical Moments: Harry Potter at the Library
by Brandi Scardilli
The last book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, turned 10 on July 21, 2017. Public libraries have been putting on Harry Potter-themed programming over the past 20 years, and they have no intention of stopping. In this way, they introduce today's children to the series for the first time. And there are other organizations keeping the love alive too. That's the power of Potter.
