The ALA annual conference was held in hot Las Vegas this year. I enjoyed it because I was able to visit with my dear daughter. We had a great time! We were able to snag quite a few advanced reading copies – I limited myself greatly, but still came away with these great ones. Looking forward to reading through these in the coming months.
The ProQuest luncheon featured the fascinating Tom Blanton, director of the National Security Archive. He spoke on the changing landscape of classified information, post-Snowden. ProQuest will be adding a new collection to the Digital National Security Archive, based on the most recent declassifications coming through. Watch for it! The NSA provides a curated collection of the most important documents released since 1945. Find out more at: http://www.proquest.com/products-services/dnsa.html
