Curious to know more about the conference substantive dates in order to make a solid hotel reservation. Is the conference full day / full force on Sunday, June 14th, for example which would mean it would be prudent to fly from the west coast to the east coast on Saturday? Similarily, is the conference in full force or winding down on Wed., June 17th, which may impact a decision to add Wed. evening to the hotel room, or not.... With no program in place for public viewing, while timing appropriate to making hotel reservations, any input or insights would be appreciated. MM

Please see SLA's 2009 online conference planner (which should be out in early 2009), so you can best judge what training, sessions, events, and/or other optional items you might want to attend. I will also see if one of the SLA HQ staff can respond to your inquiry in more detail as well. C U N DC!

Powell at 5:15p.m. There are pre-conference sessions and some board meetings that happen on Saturday. An official preliminary conference program will be in the February edition of Information Outlook. As Karen mentioned, the 2009 online conference planner should also be opening in the next two weeks to help with scheduling_._ If you have additional questions, please let us know!
