My Gov Info Presentations at ALA Annual

Attention fellow librarians! I will be attending the American Library Association Annual Conference in Chicago from July 9th-14th.

I am very excited because I will be leading a broad discussion at the "ALA Unconference" on Friday, July 10th from 11:10-12:00 on the library's role in current & emerging trends of civic engagement, transparency, preservation and access to Government information. Stop on by if you can! The supporting materials and presentation will be linked in the Unconference wiki.

Also, please come to the LITA BIGWIG Social Software Showcase to discuss and learn about Government Information Mashups! I will be presenting on this topic and would love to have you help out and/or join in on the conversation! It will be a fun, casual atmosphere. The presentation will be posted on their website but the face to face portion of the BIGWIG Showcase presentations will take place Monday, July 13th from 10:30am - 12:30pm in the McCormick Convention Center West, Room W-184.
