Don't feel bad about walking out of a session that clearly isn't ringing your chimes. - Rochelle Rochelle

Don't carry your conference bag and wear your conference badge outside the event itself. :) - Rachel Walden

NTS: Ask Chrystie for help finding hotel after party. - Steve is older than ever

Write down the sessions you want to go to, rip the maps out of the program and leave the program at home. If you should need the full program, there will be 2,000 librarians in your general vicinity you can borrow from. - Steve is older than ever

In the exhibits, ask youself before taking swag "would I want this if it weren't free?" And it is unseemly to push people out of the way to get an advance reading copy. - Steve is older than ever

I want to be able to *like* comments! Thanks Steve! - Bobbi Newman

Anything you acquire, you will have to bring home. I like to stick a small flattened cardboard box and a roll of packing tape in my suitcase to mail home free books. - Jàson Puçkett

In Chicago, just plan on spending the day either at McCormack place or at the other hotels. Getting back and forth between McCormack and the rest of the conference takes forever and a day, and you end up missing half the sessions you wanted to get to. - laura x

If you have any LSW merch, WEAR IT! ;) - josh neff, Fun Dip of FF

Make sure to attend the BIGWIG Social Software Showcase on Monday morning at 10:30 in the convention center. :-) The exhibit hall normally has a shipping area, collect free books and take them there to ship them home. Most of the really good stuff happens during the social hours, not the sessions, plan accordingly. My fav "social" events include the OCLC Blog Salon and the LITA Happy hour, but if you want you can go the entire weekend without paying for food or drink, if you smooze with enough vendors. More as I think of it. :-) - Jason Griffey

Tell Talia at the Macmillan booth and Heather at the Grand Central Publishing booth that Katie sent you. - Katie
