Association Meeting, Fall 2016

Association of Research Libraries (ARL) member representatives, ARL leadership fellows, staff, and guests gathered in Washington, DC, on September 27–28, 2016, for the 169th Association Meeting, convened by then ARL president Larry Alford, chief librarian at University of Toronto.

Program sessions included “Trends in ARL Statistical Data,” “Open Access, Shared Values, Different Paths,” and “Sci-Hub: Piracy or Public Good?” The meeting also featured the second ARL “hunchery,” in which six speakers each gave a five-minute description of a new idea, line of inquiry, project, or experiment.
