The ASDAL 2008 conference theme, Libraries 360°: The Whole Picture,
reflects the fact that libraries increasingly serve a global and virtual community.
That is certainly true within the Seventh-day Adventist church and at the schools
and institutions that we serve.
The conference will be held in the Wong Kerlee Conference Center on the campus
of Loma Linda University. There will be an opportunity for a guided historical
tour of the campus and the library during the conference. We are also planning
to spend Sabbath afternoon, June 21st, on the La Sierra University Campus for
those of you arriving early. On Wednesday, June 25th, we are planning a full
day with a behind-the-scenes tour at the Huntington Library and Gardens in San
Marino and the Getty Center in Los Angeles.

Weather
End of June in Southern California means warm and sunny (read: HOT!). Do
dress in layers because the library and other conference facilities on-campus
tend to be chilly.
