Annual Conference 2005
April 5-8
Austin Convention Center
 

Liz Carpenter

Bertice Berry

Gloria Estefan

Senator Todd Staples was one of the four legislators who addressed the rally crowd.

For the first time in almost 40 years, librarians, library supporters, and vendors gathered in Austin for the annual TLA conference.  Texas treasure Liz Carpenter stepped in to address the first general session when Cokie Roberts was dispatched to Rome.  Bertice Berry presented her unique mix of humor and inspiration at the second general session, and Gloria Estefan delighted a record crowd at the closing luncheon.  Woven around these key events were, of course, a wealth of programs, parties, conversations, meetings, and the first ever RALLY for Texas Libraries on the Capitol steps.
