    There seems to be a number of interesting speakers at the ALA virtual conference. Is anyone in RMRT registering?

    I am not sure if I will be attending. I definitely plan to be at Annual but am on the fence about a virtual Midwinter.

    I'm registered. I enjoyed the programs from last summer and that was put together very quickly. With more planning time I think the use of technology will be even better. I actually really like being able to attend a lot of the conference from home. At in person conferences I could never see all of the interesting speakers. With the online conference it was possible to hear every speaker that looked interesting and, since everything was recorded, could do it in my own time and not just at the scheduled time.--
