I had several meetings, from which I learned more about the operations/idiosyncrasies of LITA and ALA. Some of this was helpful, other bits were just mind boggling. Overall it was a good conference but as you probably gleaned from one of my previous posts, there were some bad moments.

My favorite part of ALA and almost any conference is the people you get to see. In that respect I had a fabulous ALA.
Space Needle at NightThe Innovative bash at the Space Needle was awesome, great desserts, great view, and the chance to catch up with some former colleagues.


Seattle Public Market The conference also gave me the chance to talk to my editors (who kindly took me out for food) about my current projects. Between writing the book and article commitments it is going to be a busy year.

Tulips in the Seattle Public MarketSo it was good that I got to take some time for myself to wander through the market and go up the Space Needle.
