AALL in San Antonio

Marydee @ 6:34 am

I’m off to San Antonio later today for the AALL (American Association of Law Librarians) annual meeting. There’s a blog for the conference, cleverly called the AALLamo blog. Super play on words, although Web search engines routinely ask, if you search AALLamo, “don’t you mean alamo?” Just goes to show that search engines do not understand puns. The TS-SIS (the technical services section of AALL) and started their own blog, separate from the main one. The AALLamo blog started a week before the conference. Posts were either about San Antonio (trivia, things to know about the area, touristy stuff) or about the conference itself (meeting notices, informal get-togethers). I think this is useful and something other conference blogs should consider.
