I'm so glad I was
able to participate
in the conference.
It was a joy to see
some friends I
haven't seen for a
while. I knew I was
going to appreciate
every one of the
speakers. Besides
good information,
I think the thing I
Liked the best was
that each of the
speakers was so
"real." Thank you
and all who had a
part in pulling such
an outstanding
event together.-

me" Pearsall's latest
creation, The Seventh
Most Important Thing, is a 2016 ALANotable Book.

a venue for presenting its awards. These
awards not only alert the membership

people and institutions that serve con-
gregational libraries, but also encourage
others who strive to enhance spiritual
life through library services.
