The American Association of Law Libraries' (AALL) 108th annual meeting and conference saw 1,450 attendees gather from July 18 to 21 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia. At the opening session, keynote speaker Terry Gross (host of NPR's Fresh Air) drew parallels between the conference's theme of The Power of Connection and her own work to dig deeply into the lives of the artists she interviews. She shared audio clips of previous interviews and explained how each affected her attitude toward her work and how she relates to her guests. Fresh Air gives authors, actors, musicians, and other public figures a chance to reflect on their lives, and Gross' goal is to understand how their personal lives shape their artistic expressions. As AALL president Holly M. Riccio noted during her introduction, the theme of connection runs through our lives in all areas. It helps us have a more positive impact on our jobs, institutions, and the legal profession.
