It’s a safe bet that you will find inspiration, motivation, education, and connections at this 2014 Annual Conference. Don’t miss the Opening General Session with Jane McGonigal, world-renowned expert on gaming culture, on Friday at 4:00. Enjoy the awards presentations, with a special award pre- sentation by Lemony Snicket, and a conversation with the beloved and legendary author, Lois Lowry, at the President’s Program on Sunday at 3:30. Use the Conference Scheduler and mobile app to stay on top of the many things going on. Session topics include E-books, digital content, innovation, community engagement, diversity, library instruction, literacy, data-driven decision making, intellectual freedom, technology policy, teen services, transformation, gaming, emerging trends, leadership, policy updates, graphic novels, and much more. From the opening reception on Friday to the Wrap Up/Rev Up closing on Monday, the exhibits will be packed with hundreds of authors and related fun events at various stages and pavilions and in “Artist Alley.” Be sure to make time to talk with the more than 775 exhibitors, who will bring you up-to-date on new and favorite titles, technologies, products, and services. From citizenship programs to partnerships with local organizations to managing and creating safe youth spaces, sev- eral sessions will delve into the area of community engagement. Not to be missed is the four-part series “Turning Outward to Lead Change in Your Community”—part of ALA’s Libraries Transforming Communities (LTC) initiative—that will provide you with tools to better understand and serve your community. This is practical knowledge that you can put to work as soon as you get home. You will find an incredible range of topics and experiences in the lineup of Auditorium Speakers—Jane Fonda, Stan Lee, Alexander McCall Smith, Azar Nafisi, Philippe Petit, Jennifer Kahnweiler, and Ilyasah Shabazz—plus you will enjoy dozens of speakers in other programs. You will be inspired by your colleagues’ latest innovations and passions shared in the Conversation Starters and Ignite sessions. I hope you will join me in honoring incoming President Courtney Young, the incoming President-Elect Sari Feldman, Executive Board members, and Division Presidents-Elect at the elegant Inaugural Brunch on Tuesday, immediately following the Closing General Session, which features author and comedian B. J. Novak. If you didn’t get your ticket in advance, you can still buy one onsite. OME C Thank you for the honor of serving you as President this year.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. 9 Flying Man and Falling Man Remembering and Forgetting 9 /11 Graley Herren More than a decade after the September 11 attacks, Ame~cans continue struggling to assimilate what happened on that day. This chapter consi­ ders how key icons, performances, and spectacles have intersected with narrative reconstructions to mediate collective memories of 9/11, within New York City, throughout the United States, and around the globe. In Cloning Tenvr: The War of Images, 9/11 to the Present, W. J. T. Mitchell starts from this sound historiographical premise: "Every history is really two histories. There is the history of what actually happened, and there is the history of the perception of what happened. The first kind of history focuses on the facts and figures; the second concentrates on the images and words that define the framework within which those facts and figures make sense" (xi). What follows is an examination of that second kind of history: the perceptual frameworks for making sense of 9/11, frameworks forged by New Yorkers at Ground Zero, Americans removed from the attacks, and cultural creators and commentators from abroad.

  • Man on Wire Discussion Guide
    www.influencefilmclub.com Man on Wire Discussion Guide Director: James Marsh Year: 2008 Time: 94 min You might know this director from: Project Nim (2011) Shadow Dancer (2012) The King (2005) FILM SUMMARY MAN ON WIRE is the story of French tightrope walker Philippe Petit who, on August 7, 1974, broke into the newly constructed Twin Towers of Manhattan. After months of painstaking preparations, he managed to enter the buildings during the night and string a wire between the two towers. For the next 45 minutes, Philippe Petit walked, danced, kneeled, and laid down on the wire - an expeirence he had dreamt of ever since he read about the Twin Towers six years before. Using contemporary interviews, archival footage, and Philippe’s own creations, this film tells the story of Philippe’s previous walks between towers such as the Notre Dame and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Viewers learn about his passions, his friendships, and how he accomplished his Twin Towers walk, from getting the wire into the towers and hiding from guards to mounting the wire and taking the first step. The result is a story of daring, beauty, dedication to the point of insanity, loyalty and heartbreak, and the firm belief that nothing is impossible. Discussion Guide Man on Wire 1 www.influencefilmclub.com FILM THEMES On the surface, MAN ON WIRE may appear to be about one man’s determination to achieve his dream, but the story reveals a lot about human nature, from friendship and loyalty to dreaming beyond the norm “I must be a and achieving the impossible.

This is about how people connect their work with the work that precedes them. The value of a work is how it interacts with the existing scholarship, including the need to affirm and negate, as well as to fill in where the existing literature is silent. This is the importance of bibliography, a research guide to the existing literature. A scholar is known by their mastery of the bibliography of their field of study. This is why in every PhD dissertation there is always a chapter for the "review of the literature." One of the dangers in Black Studies is that

  • X: a Novel by Ilyasah Shabazz with Kekla Magoon
    X: a Novel by Ilyasah Shabazz with Kekla Magoon This riveting and revealing novel follows the formative years of the man whose words and actions shook the world. X follows Malcolm from his childhood to his imprisonment for theft at age twenty, when he found the faith that would lead him to forge a new path and command a voice that still resonates today. Why you'll like it: Compelling, candid, emotional, suspenseful About the Authors: Ilyasah Shabazz, third daughter of Malcom X, is an activist, producer, motivational speaker and author of Growing Up X. Shabazz explains that it is her responsibility to tell her father’s story accurately. She believes “his life’s journey will empower others to achieve their highest potential.” Kekla Magoon is a writer, editor, speaker, and educator. She is the author of Camo Girl, 37 Things I Love (in No Particular Order), How It Went Down, and numerous non-fiction titles for the education market. Her book, The Rock and the River, won the Coretta Scott King/John Steptoe Award. She also leads writing workshops for youth and adults and is the co-editor of YA and Children's Literature for Hunger Mountain, the arts journal of Vermont College. (Bowker Author Biography) Questions for Discussion 1. Instead of telling the story in chronological order, the author moves back and forth through time. What effects does this have on the story? What is this important to the story? 2. Early in the story, Malcolm says “I am my father’s son. But to be my father’s son means that they will always come for me” (page 5).
