ARE YOU TALKING TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE?
START MAKING CONNECTIONS

We asked AALL 2017 attendees to share their best moments from the conference:
  • "Meeting other folks around the U.S. and hearing their stories about trying to keep the profession viable, alive, and thriving."
  • "People being generally gracious and helpful and friendly including inviting a newbie like me to the evening events, I really appreciated this!"
  • "Realizing that another attendee (familiar but not otherwise well known) had encountered very similar challenges over the past year as I had."
Some of the most valuable experiences can come from unexpected conversations. Miss out on AALL 2018, and you might miss out on the conversation you didn't even know you should be having. No other event brings legal information professionals together like this.
