I did mine awhile ago but still haven’t gotten the official ID in the mail, so I’m just going to walk up with my printout and see what happens. If you end up going, let me know.

Also, because we’re talking about inclusion and membership, I shall quote one of my favorite Too Much Joy songs, Secret Handshake:

Gimme ten grand or two tens
I’ll spend it all on my friends
Babe my secret handshake is my song

There may in fact be a chance I’ll be in the Boston area. So if I print this out I can get into the exhibit hall even without being an ALA member, if I’m a lyrasis member? Hmmmmmm…..
