The weather might have something to do with it, but Philadelphia so far has been a treat. What’s great about this city is that everything is very walkable. Every where it seems that I go, I see blue PLA badge holders. And of course, smiling librarians.
One of the nicest things about having PLA in Philadelphia is the Reading Terminal Market. It’s so close to the convention center and has a ton of great lunch options. After seeing so many people on the exhibition floor, I have really enjoyed running into them again at the market. We all have to eat, right?
Tonight we have the ALSC Happy Hour from 8-10 at McGillin’s. I’m really looking forward to seeing all to of the new and returning ALSC members (and friends) outside of the convention center. Philadelphia has been a great host and hopefully McGillin’s will continue that tradition! Thanks Philly!


Enjoyed McGillian’s last night, looking forward to the Market today for lunch!
