ALA2008 in Anaheim
I got to go to ALA (American Library Association) in Anaheim, CA this year. I’ve worked in Libraries IT for the last 5 years, but have never made it to an ALA. Anaheim is just under two hour’s drive from San Diego, and Robert tricked me into teaching a class, so I went and had a great time. Man, those librarians can drink!
I got to see one of my favorite geek librarians, and fellow photographer, Cindi Trainor:
She takes lots of portraits, I’m more of the candid shot guy:
Although, if the light is right, even I can’t resist a pose:
That’s Tombriarian on the left.
Another Harvard buddy I ran into is Kenley Neufeld:
He’s a hoot and gave me a Twitter fix on his iPhone when my Blackberry was giving me trouble.
Dan Suchy from UCSD also came up for a day:
He was in the “special librarians” seminars all day.
More pictures, lots of new librarian twitter friends met:
Who gave this guy a camera????
Nice to see you getting some serious work done @ the conference, Declan.
