[Upon original posting, I mistakenly filed this under the ALA Midwinter 2007 category, when the even is actually happening at ALA Annual 2007.  Many thanks to Chuck for pointing out the discrepancy!]
Received from Charles Malone, Government Information Librarian at Western Illinois University via email today:

On behalf of GODORT and its International Documents Task Force I would like to invite PLA members to a preconference on International documents to be held Thursday, June 21, 2007 at the World Bank in Washington, D.C. as part of ALA’s Annual Conference. Registration is available through ALA by registering for the 2007 Annual Conference at: http://www.ala.org/ala/eventsandconferencesb/annual/2007a/home.htm

As the International Government Organizations disseminate more of their information on the Web for free, we all have an opportunity to incorporate international government information into our library work.

The tentative schedule [included with the original email, here only linked to] is available at: http://www.ala.org/ala/godort/godortcommittees/godortprogram/preconf2007.htm

Thank you,
Chuck

Thank you, Chuck, for inviting us!

If you are a public librarian attending this preconference, and are interested in writing about it on the PLA Blog, drop us a line and let us know.
