The committee chose six presenters for the 2014 ALA Annual IRRT pre-conference, Training the Trainer. It was agreed Stefanie and Eve would contact the applicants by email. The committee also discussed the lunch arrangements. Catering at the convention center is usually expensive, but participants in previous years have not liked the disruption of moving to a different venue.
