Welcome, attendees, exhibitors, and friends to the 2017 ALA Annual Conference and Exhibition. I’m delighted that you’re joining us here in Chicago from all types of libraries and related organizations throughout the U.S. and more than 41 other countries. I look forward to us all making the most of these days together as we continue exploring how we can best meet the needs of all our communities and users through the lens of “Libraries Transform.” We will also be honoring and celebrating our greatly respected outgoing Executive Director, Keith Michael Fiels, after his 15 years at the helm of ALA.

So a few thoughts about our Association and the Annual Conference … Almost 7,000 libraries have already joined ALA’s national “Libraries Transform” campaign, which this year has focused on you—the expert in the library. We look forward to hearing your ideas and to helping more of you get involved. The transformation-related presentations, workshops, speakers, sessions, and discussions will prove especially useful in equipping us as we increase our intense focus on advocacy and articulating the value of libraries and librarians, as well as helping us prepare for the public, academic, school, and special libraries of the future. ALA recently added Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion—all critical to a strong future for libraries—to the Association’s strategic directions, Advocacy, Information Policy, and Professional and Leadership Development. Together, these four areas lend structure to important content you’ll find throughout the conference. Among the more than 500 sessions and programs, you’ll see an increasing number of peer-to-peer and informal learning opportunities that supplement more formal learning. There are some great additions to the Exhibits this year, always an important part of your conference experience and professional development (as well as fun). With more than 900 exhibitors and dozens of events and activities, it’s the best place to learn about new titles, products, services, and technologies. Dozens of authors will spend time there, including on the live stages, in addition to numerous book- and author-related events and celebrations of prestigious ALA book and media awards in other conference venues. I am delighted that at Saturday’s President’s Program (3:30pm), Sarah Jessica Parker will unveil her first title selection as part of the official launch of ALA Book Club Central, for which she will serve as Honorary Chair. Book Club Central, created in partnership with Booklist, Penguin Random House, and United for Libraries, is a new online platform with an online book club, reading resources, club activity recommendations, expert book lists and other content for book clubs and their readers. Two additional highlights for me will be on Saturday, 11:00am–12:00pm, “Making the Case: Influencing Your Funding Future,” and Saturday, 1:00–2:30pm, “Library and Information Experts Succeeding in the 21st Century: A Town Hall Dialogue on Competencies, Careers, and Successful Practice.” The first session will provide unique insight into what proves convincing to elected officials, and the second session will offer a framework for articulating future roles and responsibilities of library professionals. Finally, please join us for Tuesday’s Inaugural Celebration where we’ll honor incoming ALA President Jim Neal, incoming President-Elect Loida Garcia-Febo, Executive Board members, and Division Presidents-Elect. It has been a privilege serving as your President this year, and I look forward to continuing our important work together.

MCP - W375b/Skyline Ballroom Please note: the President's Program is on Sarah Jessica Parker Saturday this year. Saturday, June 24 • 3:30 pm – 4:30 pm

“From an early age, books were my constant companions and my local library a place I could find a new friend on every shelf,” says award-winning television and film actor, producer, designer, library supporter and avid reader Sarah Jessica Parker. During this 2017 President’s Program, as part of the official launch of ALA Book Club Central, for which she will serve as Honorary Chair, Parker will unveil her first title selection and introduce the guest author who will join her on stage. Book Club Central—created in partnership with Booklist and United for Libraries—is an online platform of reading resources, including recommendations, expert book lists and other content for book clubs and their readers. In another literary venture, Parker recently launched SJP for Hogarth with Molly Stern, Senior Vice President and Publisher of Crown, Hogarth, Broadway, Crown Archetype, and Three Rivers Press. SJP for Hogarth will selectively publish high-quality works of fiction by both established writers and distinctive emerging voices with critical and commercial promise. Parker, an Emmy-, Golden Globe-, and Screen Actors Guild Award-winning actor, is the star and executive producer of the HBO series Divorce, and is well known for her leading role as Carrie Bradshaw on Sex and the City. She currently serves as the Vice-Chairman of the board of directors for the New York City ballet, and was elected in 2009 by the Obama administration to be a member of the President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities.

MCP - W375b/Skyline Ballroom Ron Chernow Sunday, June 25 • 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm

Join ALA President Julie Todaro for the ALA Awards followed by her selected guest speaker, Ron Chernow. One of the most distinguished commentators on politics, business, and finance in the U.S. today, Chernow has been praised by the National Endowment for the Humanities for “bringing our Nation’s story to life. Through his examination of America’s successful giants and titans, Chernow invites his readers to discover their failures and foibles, uncovering enduring lessons that inform our modern era.” His books have won many awards, including the 1990 best nonfiction National Book Award for Photo © Nina Subin Photo his first book, The House of Morgan, and the Pulitzer Prize for his 2010 biography of George Washington. His second book, The Warburgs, won the prestigious George S. Eccles Prize for best business book and was cited by the ALA as one of the year’s ten best works. Chernow’s much anticipated biography of Alexander Hamilton was described by The New York Times as “moving and masterly…by far the best biography ever written about the man.” The book inspired the Broadway musical Hamilton on which Chernow worked with the show’s creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda as historical consultant. A frequent contributor to The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, Chernow is a familiar figure on national radio and television shows and has appeared in numerous documentaries. His newest biography, Grant, will be published in Fall 2017.

MCP - W375b/Skyline Ballroom Gene Luen Yang Saturday, June 24 • 8:30 am – 9:30 am

Gene Luen Yang, teacher, cartoonist and author, began drawing comic books in the fifth grade and in 1997 received a Xeric Grant for his first comic, Gordon Yamamoto and the King of the Geeks. A MacArthur Fellow, Yang has produced full-length graphic novels, short stories, and serial comics, many of which explore present-day and historical events through a contemporary Chinese American lens. American Born Chinese, his first graphic novel was a National Book Award finalist, as well as the winner of the Printz Award and an Eisner Award. He is a long-time educator who champions comics and graphic novels as educational tools in the classroom and has delivered a TEDx Talk on the subject. As National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature, Yang is focusing on his program “Reading Without Walls,” showing kids and teens—and adults invested in young people’s literacy—that reading is a vital part of their lives, and the importance of “reading without walls.” This might mean reading a book about a character who doesn’t look like them or live like them, reading a book about a topic they don’t know much about, or reading a book in a format they don’t usually choose. Yang said he was thrilled to serve as Honorary Chair of the 2016 National Library Week. “Libraries were such an important part of my childhood, and they're an important part of my life today. I visit my local library to research, to read, to write, and to be inspired. I'm deeply grateful for our nation’s libraries and librarians.”

Sponsored by Macmillan Children’s Publishing Group (Booth #2711) and Dark Horse Comics (Booth #3927) Signing will take place outside the ballroom immediately following the event.

Sandra Uwiringiyimana Saturday, June 24 • 10:30 am – 11:30 am

Sandra Uwiringiyimana, originally from the Democratic Republic of Congo, was just ten years old when she found herself with a gun pointed at her head. She had watched as rebels gunned down her mother and six-year-old sister in a refugee camp. Remarkably, the rebel didn’t pull the trigger, and she escaped. Uwiringiyimana tells her remarkable story in the memoir How Dare the Sun Rise: Memoirs of a War Child. She joins us to share the story of her survival, of finding her place in a new country, of her hope for the future, and how she found a way to give voice to her people. Since her family’s resettlement to the United States in 2007 through a United Nations refugee program, Uwiringiyimana has fought hard to raise awareness and calls for justice for the Gatumba massacre and other human rights abuses in the region. She is passionate about girls’ education and ending child marriage, and has become a voice for women and girls, refugees and immigrants, and forgotten people like the Banyamulenge Tribe.

She is a thought-leader, researcher, and storyteller with the rare Danny Clark © Danny Photo ability to both inspire audiences and leave them with actionable change strategies. As she says, “you either walk inside your story and own it, or you stand outside your story and hustle for your worthiness.” Brown is the Founder and CEO of both COURAGEworks—an online learning platform that offers classes for individuals and families on braver living and loving, and BRAVE LEADERS INC—an organization dedicated to providing courage-building programs for leaders at every level of an organization. In 2016, the Huffington Foundation endowed a new chair at The University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work to honor the research professor. The Huffington Foundation Endowed Chair provides annual resources for Brown’s research to attract world- class students pursuing training in Grounded Theory methodology and increase the impact of her work as more students are trained in her research on vulnerability, shame, courage and empathy.

MCP - W375b/Skyline Ballroom Andy Weir UNITED FOR LIBRARIES PRESIDENT’S PROGRAM

Monday, June 26 • 8:30 am – 9:30 am

Bestselling author, Andy Weir built a career as a software engineer until the runaway success of his debut novel, The Martian, which has sold over 3 million copies, allowed him to write full time. He is a lifelong space nerd and a devoted hobbyist of subjects such as relativistic physics, orbital mechanics, and the history of manned spaceflight. United for Libraries President, Susan Schmidt will host the President’s Program featuring Weir, who will introduce his new book, Artemis, an adrenaline-charged crime caper that features smart, detailed world-building based on real science and the charm that makes Weir’s writ ing so irresistible. The book has already garnered feature film adaptation in Hollywood. This, coupled with his new CBS TV show, Mission Control, a drama about flight controllers at NASA, Weir seems to be living his dreams, as he grew up not wanting to be an astronaut, but a flight controller. “I grew up when it sucked to be a nerd. When you’d be intensely unpopular. The only people who liked you were other hard-core nerds. Now, it’s all, You’re a nerd, you’re probably going to be successful in life!” Artemis will be available in Fall 2017.

With support from EQUITY, DIVERSITY, AND INCLUSION

Since January, the world has continued to be an uncertain place. Recent spikes in hate crimes in libraries aim to intimidate, and political populism challenges the very core values and beliefs that underpin democracy. Libraries have long supported these values through supporting equity of access to information. At the 2017 ALA Midwinter Meeting, the Association moved to adopt Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion as the Association’s fourth Strategic Direction, in recognition of the fact that now more than ever, libraries are looking to these principles as essential to the success of our institutions, or values, and our democracy.

MORE EVENTS OF INTEREST Explore the many opportunities to engage with Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion issues at ALA Annual Conference!
