    Need a roommate to keep costs down or just want a conference buddy?  Consider posting or responding to room share requests made on NMRT-L, other listservs, and the NMRT Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/pages/ALAs-New-Member-Roundtable-NMRT/169514309779205).  Also, keep your eye out on the NMRT blog and social media for a roommate finder service that is being developed by the NMRT Annual Conference Local Information Committee.  The hope is that it will be ready for the Midwinter meeting.
