Sharing news at this year’s MLA meeting will be “greener” as we experiment with alternative methods of communicating.

Traditionally, a print newsletter provides information not in the meeting program book. Articles on new exhibitors, promotion of sessions, corrections to the program, informal meeting announcements, exhibit hall winners, social events, and safety issues have all appeared. While a newsletter will continue, we will also share information in other ways.

  • The newsletter will be reduced in length and recycling opportunities will be available.
  • Information will also be posted on white boards in high-traffic areas at the meeting site.
  • Prefer an electronic format? All newsletter and white-board entries will also be posted to the meeting blog.
  • The hotel monitors (public and in the rooms) will provide information on session location changes.

To contribute items to the newsletter, whiteboards, or blog please send an email to meeting.news@gmail.com or place announcements in the labeled boxes at the Hospitality Booth and the Member Resource Room at the meeting hotel. We will accept items Friday, May 16 through Tuesday, May 20.

Please contact Pat Pinkowski at patricia.pinkowski@alz.org or 312.335.5730 with any questions.
