Plenty of No-Shows at ALA Conference

Staff -- School Library Journal, 7/1/2003

Comment
on this article

There were a lot more no-shows at the June 19–25 American Library Association (ALA) conference in Toronto because of concerns over SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome). Among the missing were Eric Carle, winner of the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal, who was scheduled to speak at the June 22 Newbery/ Caldecott/Wilder banquet. Some 176 out of 763 exhibitors canceled their trip, including last-minute dropouts such as Baker & Taylor, Brodart, Dark Horse Comics, DC Comics, Linworth Publishing, and McGraw-Hill Children's Publishing (see June 2003, News , p. 20).
