ALAMIDWINTER.ORG | #ALAMW15 3 PRESIDENT’S WELCOME Welcome to the 2015 ALA Midwinter Meeting in Chicago, the perfect city for us to get together as an association to dig into the latest—including ALA’s three strategic directions (advocacy, information policy, and professional and leadership development)—and to cel- ebrate libraries. The conversation really does start here—if it’s connecting with your colleagues that inspires you, you’re in the right place. Participate in the more than 200 discussion groups; get the latest in the “News You Can Use” updates, including those from ALA’s Washington Office; join the Unconference on Friday morning where you can contribute to the informal sharing sessions; take a seat at one of the ALA “kitchen-table” conversations; gather in the Networking Uncommons for impromptu get-togethers; enjoy the interactive Libraries Transforming Communities hands-on sessions; and round it all out at the end-of-meeting Library Camp to discuss your conference experience with other attendees. Inspiration will be all around us, from the many outstanding speakers as well as from one another. I’m thrilled to welcome Mick Ebeling to the President’s Program on Sunday afternoon, 3:30 to 5:30 pm. Ebeling, on the cutting edge of the new Maker Movement, promises an energizing message about moving from “crowd-sourcing” to “crowd-solving.” (You can read more about his work on page 8.) I’m also especially excited that Dr. Cornel West is the keynote speaker at the always inspiring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Observance and Sunrise Celebration on Monday morning, and that LeVar Burton is our Sunday Auditorium Speaker. The outstanding array of book and author-related events won’t disappoint, starting on Friday afternoon with the ERT/Booklist Author Forum panel featuring acclaimed graphic novel authors and artists Cece Bell, Françoise Mouly, Jeff Smith, and Gene Luen Yang. The ALA Youth Media Awards on Monday morning will be electric as always, as the winners of the prestigious awards including the Newbery, Caldecott, Printz, and Coretta Scott King are announced. The RUSA Book and Media Awards Ceremony and Reception on Sunday following the President’s Program is always another exciting set of announcements, including The Reading List, Notable Books and Listen List selections. Get the inside scoop on new titles from your favorite publishers at the Book Buzz Theater located in the Exhibit Hall, as well as Meet the Authors. From the opening ribbon-cutting ceremony on Friday evening through the closing events on Monday afternoon, the Exhibit Hall will be brimming with the latest products and services; opportunities to connect with favorite authors; readings, discussions, and presentations on the PopTop stage and What’s Cooking @ ALA Cooking Demo stage; and most importantly, the chance to network with exhibitors and other attendees. And don’t miss the closing Wrap Up/Rev Up Celebration’s music with the amazing Trombone Shorty on Monday afternoon (I know I’ll be up danc- ing!), followed by his conversation with acclaimed illustrator Bryan Collier. What an exciting time for libraries and librarians. Have a great time at Midwinter, and be sure to join us at our Annual Conference in San Francisco to continue building the future of libraries.

ALA PRESIDENT’S PROGRAM Sunday, February 1 • 3:30 pm–5:30 pm MCP-375B/Skyline Ballroom MICK EBELING

What if you discovered by accident that you could change the world? A film and TV producer by trade, and an optimist by nature, Mick Ebeling set out to perform an act of kindness that quickly turned into a lifelong mission guided by the directive to “commit, then figure it out.” Ebeling promises you an inspiring message about finding creative solutions to real-world problems by looking at them differently, and moving from “crowd-sourcing” to crowd-solving.” On the cutting edge of the new Maker Movement, he is finding ways to create and share simple DIY technologies that offer people greater access to medical devices, communication devices, and other things they need. Ebeling will share some of the extraordinary stories behind his successes and lessons learned (notable successes include using sunglasses, a web camera, and a coat hanger to get a para- lyzed graffiti artist drawing again, or making a prosthetic arm for less than

He plans to launch Global Labs in more than a dozen countries and at his next “Hacker/Maker” Weekend to create a cheap rehab machine for kids with cerebral palsy and other neurodegenerative diseases. He is the founder of Not Impossible Labs and The Ebeling Group, an award-winning international production company and creative think tank, and is listed as a USA Network Cultural Trailblazer. Ebeling won the 2014 Muhammad Ali humanitarian of the year award.

8 2015 ALA MIDWINTER MEETING & EXHIBITS AUDITORIUM SPEAKER SERIES MCP-375B/Skyline Ballroom

Saturday, January 31 • 10:00 am–11:00 am JASON SEGEL

Well known for his work in television and film, actor, comedian, and screenwriter Jason Segel made his debut as a children’s book author in 2014 with the first installment of his middle-grade trilogy “Nightmares!” (co-written by Kirsten Miller), with the second in the series, Nightmares: The Sleepwalker Tonic due for publication in September 2015. At its heart, Nightmares! is about kids overcoming their fears, inspired in part by Segel’s own childhood struggle with nightmares. “Ultimately, it’s a story about learning that we can accomplish anything, as long as we are brave enough to try. These are the types of stories that always inspired me,” he said. Segel’s numerous movie roles include most recently starring in Jake Kasdan’s Sex Tape, and he stars as writer David Foster Wallace in James Ponsoldt’s upcoming dramatic biopic, The End of the Tour. He wrote a “Dracula” musical performed by puppets, cowrote the movie The Muppets with Nicholas Stoller, and (also with Stoller) wrote and co-produced the film Get Him to the Greek. Knocked Up, This is 40, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, The Five-Year Engagement, Despicable Me, and Slackers. On television, Segel starred as “Marshall” on the CBS hit comedy series How I Met Your Mother, which was nominated for an Emmy® for Outstanding Comedy Series, a People’s Choice Award for Favorite TV Comedy and a Teen Choice Award for Choice AUDITORIUM SPEAKER SERIES TV Show: Comedy. He also starred in Judd Apatow’s Emmy® nominated television series Freaks and Geeks for NBC as well as Apatow’s Undeclared for FOX.

Sunday, February 1 • 10:00 am–11:00 am LEVAR BURTON

Passionate and lifelong children’s literacy advocate, actor, producer, director, and educator LeVar Burton offers an unmissable treat. For three decades, Burton has been capturing the admiring attention of both audiences and his industry peers. He was host from 1983 to 2009 of the beloved original Reading Rainbow PBS series, is cofounder of the award-winning Reading Rainbow digital library, and is currently developing the next generation of innovative children’s educational media. Burton has recently published his first children’s book, The Rhino Who Swallowed a Storm, a picture book written with poet Susan Schaefer Bernardo and illustrated by Courtenay Fletcher. He said he was inspired to write for children about “when bad things happen to good people— which happens often in life.” He has reimagined Reading Rainbow through his company RRKidz and its award-winning mobile library; the all new Reading Rainbow App is the number one educational app on iTunes and delivers hundreds of quality books and video field trips. Launching his acting career in the groundbreaking role of Kunta Kinte in the landmark television series Roots, Burton found himself on the cover of Time magazine at the age of 19, and then his global acclaim grew with his role as Chief Engineer Geordi LaForge in Star Trek: The Next Generation TV series and feature films. He has been a keynote speaker at South by Southwest (SXSW) Edu, and has received the Eliot-Pearson Award for Excellence in Children’s Media from Tufts University, 12 Emmy Awards, a Grammy, and 5 NAACP awards.

A prodigy, he was leading his own band by age six, and today he headlines the legendary New Orleans Jazz Fest. Acclaimed illustrator Bryan Collier worked with Andrews to create his picture book autobiography that takes readers from his early dreams to international stardom.

46 2015 ALA MIDWINTER MEETING & EXHIBITS STATEMENT OF APPROPRIATE CONDUCT AT ALA CONFERENCES The American Library Association holds professional conferences and meetings to enable its members to receive continuing education, build professional networks, and discover new products and services for professional use. To provide all participants—members and other attendees, speakers, exhibitors, staff and volunteers—the opportunity to benefit from the event, the American Library Association is committed to providing a harassment-free environment for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, disability, physical appearance, ethnicity, religion or other group identity.

As an association, ALA is strongly committed to diversity, equity and the free expression of ideas. These values have been repeatedly delineated in ALA policy (for instance: Policy A.1.4 – Core Organizational Values; Policy B.1.1 – Core Values of Librarianship; Policy B.1.2 – Code of Professional Ethics). Taken cumulatively, the values and beliefs delineated within ALA policy describe conduct based on a firm belief in the value of civil discourse and the free exploration of competing ideas and concepts—with a fundamental respect for the rights, dignity and value of all persons.

Within the context of ALA policy and the professional practices of librarianship, critical examination of beliefs and viewpoints does not, by itself, constitute hostile conduct or harassment. Similarly, use of sexual imagery or language in the context of a professional discussion might not constitute hostile conduct or harassment.

ALA seeks to provide a conference environment in which diverse participants may learn, network and enjoy the company of colleagues in an environment of mutual human respect. We recognize a shared responsibility to create and hold that environment for the benefit of all. Some behaviors are, therefore, specifically prohibited: STATEMENT OF APPROPRIATE CONDUCT

• Harassment or intimidation based on race, religion, language, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, disability, appearance, or other group status.

• Sexual harassment or intimidation, including unwelcome sexual attention, stalking (physical or virtual), or unsolicited physical contact.

• Yelling at or threatening speakers (verbally or physically).

Speakers are asked to frame discussions as openly and inclusively as possible and to be aware of how language or images may be perceived by others. Participants may—and do—exercise the “law of two feet.” Exhibitors must follow all ALA Exhibits rules and regulations and ALA policies.

All participants are expected to observe these rules and behaviors in all conference venues, including online venues, and conference social events. Participants asked to stop a hostile or harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. Conference participants seek to learn, network and have fun. Please do so responsibly and with respect for the right of others to do likewise.

Please contact Conference Services staff in the ALA Office at conference if you believe you have been harassed or that a harassment problem exists. All such reports will be directed immediately to the Director of Conference Services, who will determine and carry out the appropriate course of action, and who may consult with and engage other ALA staff, leaders and legal counsel as appropriate. Event security and/or local law enforcement may be involved, as appropriate based on the specific circumstances. A follow-up report will be made to individuals who report being harassed. Following the conference please contact [email protected] or (312) 280-3219.
