CALL Interviews from the AALL Exhibit Hall
As part of our ongoing coverage of the AALL Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, CALL members have been conducting brief interviews with each other and with non-CALL members to get a sense of how the conference is going and what some of the best programs have been so far.

Foreign, Comparative, and International Law Librarian
Northwestern Law School Pritzker Legal Research Center
What is the best program or event that you have attended at this year’s conference?
“Hackathon. I don’t code, but it was nice to be in a room and brainstorm with people about an interface that will be helpful to the law library community. It was great to learn how the processes of coding and development work.” Continue reading CALL Interviews from the AALL Exhibit Hall
