    Hello copy catalogers!
    I'm a paralibrarian from New Hampshire attending the PLA Conference in-person in Portland, OR in March, and I'm putting out a call to arrange a meetup of catalogers, copy-catalogers, and other technical services workers. The session "Removing Bias and Barriers from Your Cataloging" on Wednesday, March 23 from 2-3 pm may be an ideal time to get together, as it's the only program about cataloging! I would also be open to meet for lunch or to walk through the exhibit hall on any of the three days. Please contact me directly or chime in if you are interested! I look forward to it.
    Regards,
