  • 1.  2-second survey re ALA Annual Meeting extras -- LHRT dinner &/or special tours

    Posted Feb 10, 2025 09:30 AM

    Are you considering attending ALA? If so, would you be interested in an LHRT member dinner and/or special tours of historic Philly / area libraries?

    Please let me know if you might be interested in either or both through direct email (henlear@miamioh.edu) or by replying to this thread. This does not commit you to anything! 

    I'm assessing possible numbers with an eye toward advance arrangements/reservations. In the case of tours, some libraries have a charge for groups, so I'd appreciate knowing if this would be a deal-breaker.

    Thanks,

    Alea

    Hi Alea,

    I'd be very interested in a dinner with others in LHRT!

    Best,
