Poster Session Publicity
Our group met Diane Chen, a current member of the ALA Executive Board, during the Emerging Leader poster session on Friday, July 10.
I just got word via the EL listserv that she has uploaded pictures of the posters on Flickr.
She also wrote a post on her blog at libraryjournal.com where pictures from our team are highlighted!
