ALAMIDWINTER.ORG | #ALAMW20 3 PRESIDENT'S WELCOME Welcome to the 2020 ALA Midwinter Meeting & Exhibits in Philadelphia! On behalf of ALA, I am so pleased that you have joined us this year! As we move forward in 2020, we can look back to a year of reprioritization and adjustments. Yet, through it all, we have remained empowered and dili- gent, ultimately offering our libraries as true resources for the communities that we serve. The adage of “filling our cup first, in order to give from a place of abundance” is a mes- sage that begs to be communicated again and again, and to that extent our 2020 Midwinter Meeting’s primary mission is to encourage and strengthen us as library workers—and as individuals. One of my first initiatives as ALA President was the launching of “Finding your ALA”, a call to include all voices at the table—a role I take seriously as I stand on the shoulders of previous ALA leaders, who, like me, have been people of color. I look forward to connect- ing students and new library staff with ALA and helping them to find a place within the Association that furthers their careers and their ambitions. Second Chances is also a quest in which I strongly believe. My ALA President’s Program featured speaker, Chef Jeff Henderson(Sun., January 26, 3:30–5:00pm) was imprisoned for drug dealing as a young man. His second chance came when he was sent to work in the prison kitchen after a scuffle. It was there that he not only discovered a love for cooking but resolved to use that passion to become a better version of himself. Our featured speakers are sure to make an impact—so “Prepare to be Encouraged”. Our opening session speaker, Wes Moore (Fri., January 25, 4:00–5:15pm) has, despite childhood challenges, triumphed in life to become an author, business leader, social entrepre- neur, and decorated US Army combat veteran. New author and artist, Chanel Miller (Mon., January 27, 2:00–3:00pm) has taken a tragic experience and given voice to victims around the world. Author and visionary storyteller Echo Brown (Sat., January 25, 9:30- 10:30am) will motivate you as she has at Google, Facebook, and TEDx Talks. Olympic Bronze Medalists and new authors, Maia and Alex Shibutani (Sun., January 26, 9:30–10:30am) will talk about the importance of passion and dedication, and our Arthur Curley Memorial Lecture speaker, Julia Alvarez (Sat., January 25, 1:00–2:00pm) will share her lesson of purpose as a child immigrant who arrived in the United States from the Dominican Republic. The RUSA Book and Media Awards (Sun. January 26, 5:00–7:00pm) and Youth Media Awards (Mon. January 27, 8:00–10:00am) are always well-attended and NEW this year, we will celebrate 10 amazing librarians at the I Love My Librarian! Awards (Sat., January 25, 3:00–4:30pm). We are again offering the most knowledgeable organizations that you can meet with, face-to-face in the Exhibit Hall and you can hear from exciting authors on the PopTop Stage and the Book Buzz Theater. The Exhibit Hall will open immediately after the opening session—be there at 5:30pm for refreshments! PRESIDENT'S WELCOME PRESIDENT'S We’re so happy you’re here and we look forward to celebrating you throughout 2020! So, mark your calendar for June 25–30, because we want to see you again at the 2020 ALA Annual Conference & Exhibition in our headquarter city, Chicago!

Before their arrival, downtown was part of a vast forest, a lush hunting ground for Native Americans that was inhabited by mountain lions, bobcats, beavers, white-tailed deer, and wild turkeys. Hunters followed the Wiechquaekeck Trail, a path through the center that today is more often referred to as Broadway. This section of the city still centers on commerce, much as Nieuw Amsterdam did. Wall Street is America’s strongest symbol of money and power; bulls and bears have replaced the wild beasts of the forest, and conservatively attired lawyers, stockbrokers, bankers, and businesspeople have supplanted the Native Americans and Dutch who once traded otter skins and beaver pelts on these very streets. A highlight of this tour is the Financial District’s architec- ture, in which the neighborhood’s modern edifices and grand historical structures are dramatically juxtaposed: Colonial, 18th-century Georgian/Federal, and 19th-century neoclassical buildings stand in the shadow of colossal modern skyscrapers.

  • Engineering's Oldest Profession "BUILDING a BETTER TOMORROW"
    UNDER FIRE the performance of men and machines depends on what they are made of. United States Steel makes the materials for the machines, whether it's a very tough armor plate, or heat-resistant alloy, or Stainless Steels. You might be interested in some of the USS steels developed specifically for aircraft and missiles: USS Strux, an alloy steel with close to 300,000 psi tensile strength primarily for aircraft landing gears; USS Airsteel X-200, an air-hardenable alloy steel with 230,000 psi yield strength for aircraft sheet and missile applications; USS 12MoV and USS 17-5 MnV Stainless Steels for high-speed aircraft and missiles; Stainless "W", a precipitation-hardenable Stainless Steel. New "exotic" metals, new methods for making them, present an exciting challenge. Men willing to accept this challenge—civil, industrial, mechanical, metallurgical, ceramic, electrical or chemical engineers have a future with United States Steel.

    February 15, 2018 Link to Article Omnicom Media Group Stays at 195 Broadway The global marketing and corporate communications company will remain in the L&L Holding Company’s Lower Manhattan building. By Betsy Kim NEW YORK CITY—Omnicom Media Group, the media services division of Omnicom Group, Inc. has recommitted to keeping its offices at 195 Broadway in Lower Manhattan. The advertising conglomerate will relocate from the building’s upper floors to a contiguous 205,514 square-foot space, spanning the entire fourth through eighth floors. In addition to the new space, the 15-year lease renews the 82,006 square feet currently occupied by Omnicom on the 17th and 18th floors. With the expansion, Omnicom will lease a total of 287,520 square feet in the landmarked 29- story office building. The asking rents in the building are $65 per square foot. Omnicom will redesign the former AT&T auditorium on the fourth and fifth floors, which will serve as the centerpiece of its new premises. It has commissioned HLW Architects to convert the existing 30-foot high space to create a unique entrance with a shared workspace for employees and guests. “We are thrilled to extend our relationship with Omnicom, which has been our tenant for nearly a decade,” said L&L Holding Company chairman and CEO David W. Levinson. “We take pride in our ownership and the hands-on management of this historic property, which we have worked diligently to restore and renovate.
