Following is the annotated schedule of Government Documents Round
Table (GODORT) meetings for the ALA Annual Conference in New
Orleans. MAGERT meetings are also listed. Please note room
changes for the MARCIVE users meeting and the GODORT Awards
Committee.
With the exception of the Awards committee, all GODORT meetings are
open and your participation is both wanted and needed. The "New
Members" meeting on Saturday preceding the FDTF Agency Update is a
good way to get oriented and the GODORT/MAGERT reception on Sunday
evening is a way to meet people more informally.
