There's been an effort to make the American Library Association (ALA) Midwinter Meeting "member-friendly," so that more ALA folks will attend, and it shows. Held January 7-11 in beautiful San Diego, the conference program is loaded with interesting events that look suspiciously like entertainment, plus learning . opportunities, and the usual parties and celebrations. So despite ALA policy that Midwinter is "convened for the primary purpose of expediting the business of the Association through sessions of its governing and administrative delegates serving on board, committees and Council" there is plenty at Midwinter to educate and entertain you. We have listed our picks of the (mostly) free sessions here. Holding Midwinter in southern California is certainly a fine way to begin.
