Rachel ResnickThis issue is full of articles about the Chapter’s Annual Meeting and MLA2010, and also includes our regular columns, except for the TechnoHumanist Corner, which will return in the fall. Thanks to Dan Kipnis, Priscilla Stephenson, and Julia Lewis for their MLA2010 reports. I welcome “newbie” Marita Malone to the Chronicle’s pages; she attended her first MLA conference and lived to tell about it. Enjoy her lighter side of the conference. Thanks also to Martha Kirby and Gary Kaplan, who provided a report on an event sponsored by the Philadelphia area chapter of SLA.
