ACRL, Indianapolis Conference 2013

ACRL, Indianapolis Conference 2013-started off wet and warm then ended cold and damp. There were 239 exhibitors in 398 booths, which made this the largest exhibition in ACRL Conference history. ACRL 2013 offered over 300 thought-provoking sessions. Official Attendance unknown. The higher education librarians came to ACRL for promoting, advancing, supporting, and the values of their libraries being represented. The new and improved ACRL conference brought forth an array of webcasts, panel/roundtable discussions, papers presented poster sessions, keynote speakers, and innovative technology. Not to mention, meeting up with old colleagues and making new acquaintances. ACRL, continues to bring together librarians from all professional levels, all sizes and types of libraries that represent various institutions, from across the US and world. I personally met a librarian from Trinidad.
