Call for ALA Conference Reviewers (Library Hi Tech News)

Call for ALA Conference Reviewers (Library Hi Tech News)

Library Hi Tech News is seeking conference reviewers to write substantive in-depth conference reports for the upcoming ALA Midwinter meeting in San Antonio. The notes for contributors
are located at: http://www.emeraldinsight.com/info/journals/lhtn/notes.jsp

The following is a list of programs that would be of interest to our readers. There probably are other programs, which could be included too. Please send an email to jgelfand@uci.edu if you are interested in writing a conference report indicating which programs or meetings you
would like to cover. The deadline for coverage of ALA MW 2006 is February 17, 2006 to be included in the April 2006 issue.

Thank you for your consideration and we look forward to your submissions.
This is a good professional development opportunity.
