Summer Issue of SLA Toronto Newsletter
The Summer 2005 issue of Courier, the newsletter of the Toronto chapter of SLA, has been published.
There are quite a number of articles on the June 2005 SLA conference that took place in Toronto, including one where I am quoted.
In Swing Dances and Smarties: Volunteer Adventures at the SLA Toronto Hospitality Booth, Greg Barber describes what it was like being a volunteer at the SLA Toronto Hospitality Booth during the conference and mentions some of the more off-beat questions we had to handle.
I was asked "Where are the best underground goth clubs in town?"
As I state in the article, "I answered off the top of my head (essentially guessing based on street posters I’ve read, because, of course I would never be seen in a Goth club), and by perusing a copy of Now magazine [free entertainment weekly]. Who would have guessed that looking closely at all those strange posters as I walk along Queen Street West would come in handy one day in my professional life?".
Other conference-relate articles include:
