To go or not to go.... that is no longer the question....
The annual American Library Association (ALA) conference is going to be held from July 9-15 in Chicago.
When I worked at TTU, I was sponsored to attend the 2005 conference in Chicago.
Husband had work at that time so he couldn't travel with me. All praise be to Allah SWT I did not have any trouble exploring the city of Chicago alone. I shared a hotel room with my ex-colleague, Minerva, and we had a wonderful time there.
I loved the dynamic, energetic and informative conference programs that I attended in 2005. Even though I am not a full-time librarian now, I still want to keep myself updated on the latest library trends.
When I saw the conference program on the ALA web site, I am soooooo tempted to go.
But with a daughter now, I don't think I can attend the conference this year. I am looking forward to future opportunities to attend it when daughter is older, Allah SWT willing.
