  • 1.  Meet for Dinner at ACRL Pittsburgh

    Posted Jan 29, 2023 03:30 PM
    Happy Sunday! Three librarians from our institution are attending ACRL in person. I'd love to coordinate a group dinner. 

    Please comment if you're interested! I cross posted with very small and for-profit institutions as I think we could have a blended dinner and good conversation. :)

    I cross posted to the very small libraries group. We have two librarians interested in joining us there.

    We're up to potentially 5 for dinner. I'm happy to arrange the reservation and find a restaurant to meet our dietary needs.

    I hope others can join us!

    We have quite a few interested in dinner from the very small institutions group. 

    All - How about a dinner Wednesday March 15th? We can meet after the First-time orientation. While this would be a late dinner, it would give us all a chance to make plans for the rest of the conference. 

    Proposed Dinner on Wednesday March 15th

    • Drinks at 7:30pm
    • Dinner at 8:00pm

    Potential Restaurants
