I’m pretty excited to be going to YALSA’s first Literature Symposium this weekend in Nashville. I’ve been to lots of instate/regional conferences but never to anything out of state/national. Apparently over 600 people are signed up. I know I need to keep a reign on my expectations (it is still a conference after all), but I do have high hopes. I tend to think the teen quarter of libraryland is one of the more happenin places to be and hope to meet a number of like minded individuals - we’ll see though. Of course I’m also hoping to come back with lots of good information and new ideas to try out. Gotta keep things new and fresh!
