After a long and weary drive followed by perhaps too little sleep, I got up this morning for the ALA Midwinter Meeting. Registration was smooth – got to the Will Call window, signed in, and away in about 30 minutes. Spent a little longer working out precisely what I’m going to be doing when for the next few days.

This evening the Exhibit Hall opened. Went in along with all the other early entrants; picked up 24 books and comics and a large stack of literature and paraphernalia. Packed them all away; have an empty bag to fill again tomorrow.

The YALSA Gaming Expo focused mainly on computer console games. Interesting stuff, but was already familiar with a lot of it. Still, I see how it could be useful for someone with little or no prior exposure to the world of gaming.
