    I'm still looking for bloggers to cover sessions at ALA Annual. See the list of suggested sessions here: http://blogs.ala.org/nrmig.php?title=ala_annual_2009_best_bets_for_metadata_l&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

    If you can cover our session, Workflow Tools for Automating Metadata Creation and Maintenance, from 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM on 07/11, that would be particularly helpful!

    Hi Kristin, I'll cover that session since no one has volunteered and it is July 8th already. I'll just try my best. See you in Chicago!:) Sai
