ALA Chicago 2005 Main Page
From ALA Chicago Wiki
Welcome to the unofficial wiki for the 2005 ALA Annual Conference in Chicago!
With your help, we can create a great guide to the conference and the Chicagoland area.
The conference will take place from June 23-29, 2005.
Click here (http://www.ala.org/ala/eventsandconferencesb/annual/2005a/home.htm) for the official ALA page for the Annual Conference.
Anyone who wants to add to or edit topics on the wiki can do it. You don't need to ask before making a change -- this wiki belongs to all of us. If you know something about Chicago or have some ALA Conference tips, please contribute to the wiki. I went to my first ALA Annual Conference in 2004, and I know it would have been great to have had advice and suggestions on what to do in Orlando and at the Conference.
