summertime = watermelon, birthdays, and ala #ala2012

I’ve been posting like crazy but that always happens in June. This month is full of three things I love: watermelon with salt, my birthday, and conferences! The watermelon has started getting tasty this week.

yum

The birthday is still a couple of weeks away. But, the trifecta of IASSIST, Metrolina, and ALA kicked off and we are getting into the home stretch.

I’m following the trend of posting where I will be headed (in general) at ALA. I’m not presenting, but will be writing for Against the Grain again this year. If you have a great story to share, stop me and say hi! I have some committee duties, but I will try to get around as much as possible. Maybe I will see you there!

If you wonder why people write these posts, try it. You’ll have a much better understanding of the realities of your schedule than you can get just slapping events on the calendar.

Friday, June 22:

  • 10: Going to a session on the Proquest Congressional migration both for ATG and for my own work. LexisNexis had a great product in Congressional so I’m a wee bit wary of this.
  • 1: ACRL Leadership Council session for both the Data Interest Group and for the Law and Political Science Section
  • 3: Emerging Leaders poster session (ELs REPRESENT!)
  • 5:30: The Government Documents Round Table happy hour
  • 7:30: LPSS Executive Board meeting
  • 8:30: Splitting time between the ALA emerging leaders veteran/newbie meet-up and the LPSS reception
  • 10: D.A.N.C.E. party

Saturday, June 23:

Sunday, June 24:

  • 8:30: LITA’s dataone program
  • 10:30: The International Relations Committee Near East & South Asia Subcommittee program on the Arab Spring
  • 1:30: The CQ award ceremony
  • 3:30: Meetings for ATG
  • That night there are a few overlapping receptions (GODORT, NMRT, LITA, LIS). I will see where the flow takes me!

Monday, June 25:

  • 8: Proquest awards ceremony. I’m very excited about this one. ASERL is winning the award for their Collaborative Federal Depository Program.

Twitter-rific!

  • So apparently the PHL airport can't afford horns for its carts. Second women I've seen driving and screaming 'BEEP BEEP'. It's surreal. 8 hours ago
  • Croatian heard already. Love international terminals. (@ Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) w/ 59 others) 4sq.com/154v42S 8 hours ago
