Description of Pictures: BioGraphics: Reading Graphic Novel Biographies
The virtues of graphic biographies are now recognized. Having two visions of a famous person's life in one, that of the biographer and of the
artist, adds even more nuance and depth to a person's life story. It might also happen that we pick up a biography we wouldn't usually be interested in, thanks to the appealing art. A panel of award-winning graphic biographers will discuss and present their works.
With Gina Siciliano (I Know What I Am, Fantagraphics Books), Typex (Andy: The Life and Times of Andy Warhol, SelfMadeHero) Gol (Cervantes: The Genius' Fantasy, Europe Comics).

Speakers (left to right):
* Unknown moderator
* Miguel "Gol" Gomez, Writer and artist
* Typex, Writer and artist, The French Comics Association
* Gina Siciliano

Wikipedia Description: American Library Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The American Library Association (ALA) is a group based in the United States that promotes libraries and library education internationally. It is the oldest and largest library association in the world, with approximately 64,600 members. Founded in 1876 in Philadelphia and chartered in 1879 in Massachusetts, its head office is now in Chicago. Since 2002, Keith Michael Fiels has been the ALA executive director (CEO).

The stated mission of the ALA is "to provide leadership for the development, promotion, and improvement of library and information services and the profession of librarianship in order to enhance learning and ensure access to information for all." ALA membership is open to any person or organization, though most of its members are libraries or librarians. As well, most members live and work in the United States, with international members comprising 3.5% of total membership.

The ALA is governed by an elected council and an executive board. Policies and programs are administered by various committees and round tables. One of the organization's most visible tasks is overseen by the Office for Accreditation, which formally reviews and authorizes American and Canadian academic institutions that offer degree programs in library and information science.

Members may join one or more of eleven membership divisions that deal with specialized topics such as academic, school, or public libraries, technical or reference services, and library administration. Members may also join any of seventeen round tables that are grouped around more specific interests and issues than the broader set of ALA divisions.

The ALA is affiliated with regional, state, and student chapters across the country. It also organizes conferences, participates in library standards development, and publishes a number of books and periodicals. The ALA annually confers numerous notable book and media awards, includin ...More...

If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
