    Join LIRT for lunch in Chicago!


    LIRT (Library Instruction Round Table) is organizing "Bites with LIRT" groups for lunch at moderately priced restaurants during the ALA Midwinter Conference in Chicago. This is your opportunity to meet other librarians interested in library instruction while enjoying lunch in a local restaurant.


    LIRT welcomes anyone who has an interest in instruction from all types of libraries. You need not be a member of LIRT to participate.


    We hope you will join us in this opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences about library instruction in a relaxed setting. Enjoy a stimulating and fun lunch with LIRT -- good food, good company, and interesting conversation. We will make the arrangements; all you have to do is reserve your spot and show up! Please RSVP at http://www.ala.org/lirt/bites-midwinter .
