Music Library Association 71st Annual Meeting
The Music Library Association (MLA) will hold its 71st Annual Meeting at the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, February 18-21, 2002. The opening plenary session, titled "The Music Industry in Las Vegas," will include an overview by Ken Hanlon, professor of music at the University of Nevada at Las Vegas and Joe Delaney, a journalist and record producer. The second plenary session will focus on digital audio library services. The panelists will discuss the legal, technological and academic issues related to digital audio technologies in libraries.
The MLA Local Arrangements Committee, host of the 71st Annual Meeting, is planning a tour of the Hoover Dam. Additionally, there will be an MLA Organ Crawl.
The annual meeting will also include a reception at the Liberace Museum. The museum was founded in 1979 by Liberace himself. It features his collection of jewelry, rare antiques and pianos, his wardrobe, and custom car collection. The Museum is a non-profit organization that supports the Liberace Foundation for the Performing and Creative Arts, funding scholarships in the arts since 1976. During the reception there will be performances on some of Liberace's pianos by students and former students who have held Liberace scholarships.
