Today’s focus was about advocacy and public policy which is something that I’ve recently become interested in. I decided to attend sessions that focused on the advocacy that my fellow librarians are doing so that I can take ideas back to my library and try to implement.

The first day of a conference is always incredibly exciting…and incredibly tiring. However, there is something very different about PLA – I’m not sure what it is; if it’s seeing different librarians from different states who have the same ideas as you or if it’s learning new things or if it’s just exciting because it’s exciting. Either way, day one didn’t disappoint.
