Emerging at #ala11

Six months ago, I walked into a room full of strangers. When I walk into the room today, I’m going to greet my friends.

I met my Emerging Leaders group for the first time at ALA Midwinter in San Diego and since then, it’s been months of conference calls, brainstorming, and wonderful collaboration. Today, our hard work comes to a head as we present our poster on videogame collection development at the Emerging Leaders Poster Session.

Believe me, I have thought more about videogames these past few months than in the rest of my life combined! And I think we have come up with a really stellar project that will be helpful to a lot of librarians starting up or maintaining videogame collections. If you’re reading this from New Orleans, I hope you’ll stop by the Emerging Leaders Poster Session from 3:00pm-4:00pm in Conference Center Room 271-273 to check out all the amazing projects.

If you’re playing along at home, check out our project website and stay tuned because I’ll be blogging about the poster session later in the day!

PS: New Orleans humidity/rain vs. my flat iron. Who will win?
