SLA Wrap-Up: Tuesday
I’ve been so busy since I got back from SLA that I haven’t had a chance to write about the rest of the conference!
Tuesday and Wednesday passed in a blur. I have just posted my notes from a fabulous session on “Handling Difficult Employee Issues”. On Tuesday I also attended “20+ Tips for Searching the New Web” by Mary Ellen Bates. I was a little bit disappointed by this one; I knew most of the sources she mentioned. But she’s such a good speaker that I enjoyed it anyway. In the afternoon I attended “Spectacles: Librarians in Pop Culture”, which was light-hearted and a nice break from all the serious stuff.
That night, Kelsey and I met up for dinner at Rioja, which was amazing! The food was to die for. On top of the delicious roving bread basket we got two amuses-bouche. I had the goat cheese and artichoke tortellini and we shared the “Coconut Macaroon” angel food cake which came with basil-ified pineapple - scrumptious despite the fact that I normally don’t like basil!! I highly recommend it.
After that we zipped over to the tail end of the FreePint reception, where I met Monique Cuvelier, who was my editor when I wrote an article for FreePint. She’s as lovely in person as she is on the phone and e-mail, and I’m looking forward to working with her again at some point.
From there we headed back to the Hyatt for the IT Golddigger’s Ball and the Legal Division Open House. Legal Division was dead-skis, so we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly at the IT party, where we too advantage of the open bar and witnessed Stephen Abram cutting a rug. Awesome!!
Later: Adventures at DIA!
