Looking for a few good librarians

The AALL Annual Meeting newspaper, the Hub, and its companion blog, the Hub-bub, are looking for energetic law librarians to join our team in Boston.  The paper and blog will be covering all aspects of the meeting including events at the conference, local attractions, general announcements, and your impressions of the meeting.  Folks who sign on to the team will be considered official bloggers for the conference and enjoy benefits such as dedicated space with wifi and power outlets in program rooms for blogging about programs and an “AALL Blogger” badge ribbon to facilitate in person interactions with attendees.  

Please contact Joan Shear, joan.shear@bc.edu if you are interested in being an official reporter for the newspaper or Michelle Pearse, mpearse@law.harvard.edu, if you are interested in joining the blogging adventure.   Even if you don’t want to commit to regular reporting or blogging, one-time posts or contribution of content/news generally is greatly appreciated!   Copy for the preconference electronic edition of the Hub should be sent to joan.shear@bc.edu no later than June 7, and for the first print edition no later than July 9.
