Geeky Librarian Fun in New Orleans

No thanks to United/Continental Airlines, I have finally made it to New Orleans for the American Library Association's Annual Conference. (The only good thing about the flight was the fact that "Beastly" was the in-flight movie). After arriving at 4:30am local time this morning, thanks to extensive delays, I am ready to report on all the geeky librarian fun I will be having...stay tuned!

Today started with SLEEPING IN, and then a magical discovery that my hotel's pool was on the roof. Reading in the glorious sunshine was a wonderful way to spend the afternoon. (I am still trying to finish up the last of the BFYA books that I brought with me). 90 degrees feels wonderful to someone stuck in the horrible Seattle "spring" that we've had.

Tonight I am off to two publisher events, with the opportunity to meet wonderful authors and eat yummy food. Will post details later...

Are you in NOLA? What are you most excited for this weekend?

The BFYA teen session is always fun! Have finally returned from vacation, so I'm hoping to update with comments about the books we discussed.

Am looking forward to hearing more from you!
