From the Editor

This is a jam-packed issue of the newsletter. It fills you in on the ALA Midwinter Conference in Washington, D.C. and highlights the LIRT retreat, held at George Washington University on February 14. With a theme of "Getting to the Heart of LIRT,"the retreat brought together a group interested in developing plans for the future of LIRT.

In this issue, you can read different perspectives on the retreat which is going to have an impact on current and future goals of LIRT. There's plenty in this issue to read and digest, but be sure to check the Web Site for LIRT for the late-breaking news on LIRT (http://diogenes.baylor.edu/Library/LIRT/).
