We invite you and your library peers to join us Saturday June 22 – Sunday June 23 from 8am until 5pm in the Innovative Salon to share ideas, recharge, and eat.
The Innovative team is excited to announce that we’re hosting a series of short thought-leadership talks during the weekend ALA Annual. The Innovative Salon takes its name from the historic version of Salons – meetings of intellectuals to share ideas. And of course, we’ll have plenty of food and exclusive giveaways only for Salon attendees.
Location: Renaissance Washington DC Downtown, about 2 blocks from the Convention Center. Go to “Meeting Room” level and Meeting Room #5
Time: Saturday June 22 and Sunday June 23 from 8am until 5pm
Why go? Relax and take a break from the excitement of ALA, grab a bite, and exchange ideas with peers. Free food at breakfast and lunch, snacks available all day.
