Guy, Yes, I bought my ticket long before we heard for sure. So I’ll be there. I just took a gamble that you’d be able to find a room for that day. Alaska in the summer is a huge tourist destination, so getting a ticket for summertime is a challenge if one does not purchase quite early.

What's the status of finding a room for the meeting on Tuesday, June 25th for the Idea Exchange? I'm attending ALA, so I need to know if I'm staying over an extra day or not. > > thanks, > > Page Brannon > Alaska Center for the Book > > On Thu, Jan 10, 2019 at 4:31 AM Lamolinara, Guy <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Thanks everyone.

So depending on when it were scheduled then I would try to be there for the Exchange as well. Ideally the Wednesday or Thursday before the conference. I'm planning to shop for tickets, somewhat soon to reduce the cost overall, as I have no funding to attend either event.

Maybe I should poll the group? > > > <image001.png> > > National Library Legislative Day (NLLD) is a two-day educational event that brings hundreds of librarians, trustees, library supporters, and patrons to Washington, D.C. Attendees spend one day learning about effective advocacy tactics and pressing federal legislative issues that are impacting libraries. On the second day, they join attendees from their state to meet with their members of Congress and rally support for library issues and policies. Open to the public, the event also offers attendees the opportunity to attend a reception on Capitol Hill. > > Note: In light of ALA's Annual Conference, which will take place in Washington, D.C. on June 20-25, 2019, the next National Library Legislative Day will occur in 2020.
