Librarian's convention
I'm a librarian from 9 to 5 at a private library. The annual convention of the American Library Association was held from Friday to Tuesday this week and I went every day. I had a wonderful time but I was saddened to see no Catholic booksellers there. Several Protestant and even an Islamic press were there (the Baptist publisher had a very sophisticated booth) but not one Catholic publisher. Thousands of librarians were in DC this week and the Catholic publishers really missed a great opportunity.
