Dear Safraniyot and Safranim, We're all working very hard here in the New York Metropolitan area to make certain you will have a great Convention this coming June.
May 1st is the next deadline for registering for the convention before the fees go up again. Please note that the registration form, and forms to sign up for tours and the CEU are on the Convention page on the AJL web page at www.jewishlibraries.org. Click on Convention, then on 39th Annual Convention. The highlighted words are links to the forms. Please note that anyone planning to attend the Freshman Seminar or Book Repair Workshop (just announced) on Sunday, any tours or the Wednesday meetings needs to register in order to get a badge. We have been advised by the hotel that for security reasons everyone must wear a badge, even if it's for a "meals only" registration. To clear up some points of confusion: * According to AJL minhag, all AJL members who are presenters or participants in sessions and programs register (and pay.) So, those of you who haven't yet, we're ready for you! * It is possible to renew AJL membership at the same time as registering. Directions are on the registration form. * Signing up for meals only will not entitle people to attend sessions or events (except the meals, of course). * The tours are offered as a benefit of registration at the Convention. Anyone wishing to take advantage of the excellent tours (look for an additional exciting announcement, by the way) must have registered at the very least for either the Sunday keynote dinner/address or 1 day at the per diem rate. (Library school students please e-mail Liza Stabler off list [EMAIL PROTECTED]). This does not apply to partners or spouses. * Those attending the membership meetings on Wednesday will need to indicate on their registration forms whether or not they will be purchasing breakfast and/or lunch. We're looking forward to seeing you as in Brooklyn.
