Due to a last minute change to state travel rules that would've forced me to pay several hundred dollars out of pocket with no reimbursement, I've canceled my trip to New Orleans to attend the AALL Annual Meeting. So no Bloggers Gathering. No Indiana University reception. No roundtables. No CS-SIS breakfast meeting. No AELIC meeting.

Worst of all, I won't be speaking at the program I proposed and coordinated on RFID technology in law libraries, scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. Fortunately, thanks to the efforts of my co-presenter, University of Georgia Law Library Director Ann Puckett, the show will go on without me. Speaking in my place will be Maureen Cahill, also from the University of Georgia. Thanks to Ann and Maureen for moving forward in my absence.

In the meantime, this unexpected stretch at home provides me some extra time to prepare for my impending cross country move. My last day at UNLV is Tuesday, and I should be on the road to Connecticut by Saturday.
