Abstract

In January 2014, I was selected as the winner of the ALCTS Jan Merrill-Oldham Travel Grant, a scholarship that would send me to the ALA Annual Conference. As a relatively new librarian – and someone working in the field of preservation – the grant represented a huge opportunity for me to attend a major conference and network with my fellow preservation folks. Las Vegas or not, I’d be a fool to pass it up; and so it was that I found myself making hotel reservations, plotting out a five-day conference schedule, and boarding a plane westward.
