The Conference‐Goers' Guide to Collection Building
Abstract
Attending professional conferences can be exciting, expensive, time consuming, frustrating, rewarding—and sometimes all of these. Inflation, combined with ever‐tightening travel restrictions in the 1980s, forces many of us to justify fully the time and money spent for professional activities. Conferences, particularly the ALA Annual Convention, can and should be one of the most cost‐effective and professionally rewarding experiences available. It's an ideal way to combine several functions and lessen the cost of each, particularly for those of us interested in building library collections.
