    Hello fellow MIGers!

    I was fortunate enough to have my presentation proposal selected for the upcoming ALA conference in Anaheim in June.  I originally proposed it a based just on Scottsdale Public Library's mobile web experience but I'd be more than happy to share the platform with one or two other libraries.  If you're interested in presenting what your library is doing with mobile please email me at afifarek@scottsdaleaz.gov.  Particulars about the accepted program are below.  I'm supposed to have a completed speaker's list and summary in to PPC by December 1st.  Thanks for considering. -- Aimee
