Alexander Street Press | ALA Midwinter 2009

2009 American Library Association
Midwinter Meeting in Denver

Another ALA Midwinter Meeting is upon us, and we can't wait to show you our new products, new content, and new functionality. We learn so much from all of the librarians we talk to, and hope you will be able to join us at one or more of the events we are hosting in Denver. Librarian feedback always helps us make our collections better, and we value your opinions. Additionally, we'll be exhibiting in two booth locations. Scroll down to the bottom of this page for more information.

Alexander Street Press Customer Appreciation Breakfast
When: Sunday, January 25th at 7:30am
Where: Hyatt Regency Denver at Convention Center,
Centennial Ballrooms D & E
RSVP now

There are some things you can always count on at an Alexander Street breakfast: a mouth-watering menu, hundreds of trendsetting librarians, and an iconic guest speaker.

Join us on Sunday, January 25th, at 7:30 am for what will again be the buzz-generating event of the conference! Seats are already starting to fill up, so be sure to RSVP now and mark your calendars.

Our guest speaker in Denver is the Pulitzer Prize-winner Art Spiegelman. Best known for his graphic novel memoir Maus, Spiegelman boasts an impressive resume that includes pivotal roles in the underground comics movement, sensational art for The New Yorker, children’s publishing, and advocacy for the medium of comics.

Alexander Street Press Roundtable Sessions
When: Saturday, January 24th
Where: Magnolia Hotel Denver
More details and RSVP form

American History in Video: A Critical Video Edition	7:30 AM
The NEW Music Online and Jazz Music Library	8:30 AM
Local and Regional History	4:00 PM

Our roundtable sessions offer librarians a unique chance to get up close and personal with Alexander Street editors and key decision makers. We'll have food—breakfast or a winter snack (depending on the time of your roundtable)—a fireplace, and editors anxious to get your input and advice. Roundtables are organized around specific products or disciplines, and space is limited so RSVP now.

In exchange for your time and the benefit of your expert opinion, we will also give you the opportunity to win a one-year subscription—and with just 20 attendees per session, the odds aren't bad!

Alexander Street Press Exhibit Booths
When: Friday, January 23rd through Monday, January 26th
Where: Colorado Convention Center, Booths #1924 and #1153

If you are unable to attend any of the events above, we'd love to see you in the exhibit hall. Stop by to learn more about our newest collections, and learn how to get free access to all Alexander Street Press resources. Live demonstrations will take place in booth #1924 and a schedule will be posted here soon.

You can also find Alexander Street in the Comics Pavilion in booth #1153. Be among the first to learn about our brand new collections of comics, graphic novels, early comic strips, and more. Our first collection, Underground and Independent Comics, Comix, and Graphic Novels will be available later in 2009. Stop by the booth for more details.
