hints about choosing sessions<br />
If you are feeling a bit overwhelmed by the number of choices, please remember to look<br />
beyond the session title. Each submission was reviewed and accepted by one or more ILA<br />
Member Interest Groups (MIGs), which is one indicator of the session’s focus and approach.<br />
Also consider session format: two sessions with similar titles but different formats may<br />
appeal to two different learning styles.<br />
We provide this information as a guide; please feel free to stretch yourself by attending one<br />
or two sessions outside of your normal comfort zone. Of course, all sessions are open to all<br />
interested parties; however, if the room is full please attend another session as overcrowded<br />
rooms pose a safety hazard.
