    Hello again, everyone,

    Registration is now open for our Ebooks Interest Group meeting on February 1 at 1 pm.

    We will have an agenda out shortly, but I expect that you'll see important news about some of your favorite projects on the menu alongside a healthy portion of important news from interest group members.  Please join us!

    Important Reminder: This meeting and this group are open to everyone who is interested in the intersection of libraries and ebooks.  Please feel free to share this message and event with your colleagues!  ALA membership is not required.  (That said, we'd certainly love to encourage you to join ALA and the new Core Division!)
