A Pin for All ALA Occasions
For those of you who have ever been to an ALA Annual Conference, you know how much fun the badge flair can be — you can amass quite a collection over the years!
Nobody knows that more than Mimi Boysen, a longtime ALA supporter who worked with many of you while she was with Quill. She recently dropped off ALA pins from conferences over the years for historical memorabilia. Thank you, Mimi!
