Slight Schedule Change for Exec Board at ALA Midwinter 2014

  • 1.  Slight Schedule Change for Exec Board at ALA Midwinter 2014

    Posted Jan 16, 2014 02:44 PM

    The MAGIRT Executive Board Meeting on Sunday January 26th will begin at 1:30pm rather than 1pm.  It is in the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown (1201 Market St), room 402.


    The ALA Conference Scheduler reports it as starting at 1pm because ALA locks us into specific meeting time slots.  We’re going to allow an extra half hour so people have a little more time for lunch.  We have the room up until 4pm, but I expect we’ll be done with the Board Meeting before then, maybe we’ll be done be 3pm?  At least we won’t have other groups breathing down our necks to use the room before us and after us.
