At ALA in Chicago, the Video Round Table held it’s annual program, which focused on celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Notable Videos for Adults Committee. As part of the program, Nora Dimmock of the River Campus Libraries at the University of Rochester created an introductory video.
I haven’t even taken a look at the listings yet for the ALA Annual Conference and my schedule is already pretty full. Most of what has claimed my time so far have been meetings and events for my work on the Video Round Table and for the ACRL Media Discussion Group.
I guess I’ll check the schedule and fill in the gaps when I get there or just follow the cool people around.
The ACRL Media Discussion Group is pleased to announce its session for the ALA Annual Conference in Chicago:
Brother Can You Spare a DVD: Media Collections and Budget Cuts.
Join us to brainstorm ways to cope with the changing economy.

Amanda Hornby, of the University of Washington Libraries, and I have been co-chairs of this group for the past year but our appointment is just about over. We are looking for volunteers for the next co-chairs of the group. If you are interested, you can contact me or Amanda and we will give you more details. You need to be a member of ALA and ACRL and need to commit to attending both ALA Annual and Mid-Winter.
