We will also honor LHRT award recipients in general and a few who will be present in specific!
If you're interested in dinner or tours while at ALA, as per below, please fill out this form/spreadsheet
DINNER: Sat. 6/28, 7pm, at Emei (sichuan) -- NOTE: if we are under 15 registrants we'll order at the table; if over, it's pre-fixe. I'll be contacting the restaurant Thursday afternoon for final arrangements, so please be sure to let me know by noon Thursday (through the form above) if you plan to attend.
TOUR OPTION One: Sat. 6/28 at 3pm, Maxwell Mansion, where Holley Lecturer George Bourdreau is Executive Director. Note that this is roughly 45 minutes by public transportation from the convention center (if interested in sharing transportation, register that on the form)
TOUR OPTION Two: Sun. 6/29 at 3pm, Rosenbach Museum & Library--per yesterday's ALA email, admission to the Rosenbach is free all day so interested people can meet up whenever. There are guided tours at a cost of $15 (tickets can be purchased in advance). I'll be on the 3pm tour if anyone's interested. (Unfortunately, initial interest was below the minimum for a special guided tour).
Philly's a city rich with options of things to do, places to be--but I hope to see as many as possible of you at one or more of the LHRT-related events! (Particularly the Holley)
