Sections are the heart of the MLA experience!

  • Sections provide the place to network with other medical librarians who work in setting similar to yours and who serve populations such as yours.
  • Sections are where you find out new developments, services and products relevant to specifically to what you do.
  • Sections provide a chance to be one of a select group rather than just one in the large crowd of medical librarians that is MLA.

The first annual Section Shuffle at MLA ‘08 Chicago will be held on Sunday May 18 from 6:00-7:00pm.

At the Section Shuffle, attendees can explore all of the Sections in one place. All 23 Sections have signed up to participate and will inform you about their activities with creative displays. Where else can you see a demonstration of two different page turning software programs, enjoy Chicago treats like lemonheads and other muchies, play Simon Says, win prizes to Chicago attractions, feel like a detective and get an international perspective on the profession?

Shuffle on over to the Section Shuffle in Regency Ballroom C to find opportunities you never expected to find at MLA!
