About this app

**FOR ATTENDEES ONLY**

The ALA Mobile Conference mobile application allows you to access the American Library Association's various annual conferences. Within the underlying event apps, users can access presentations, exhibitors, posters, and connect with other attendees. Users can also take notes adjacent available presentation slides and draw directly on slides inside the event apps.

Ratings and reviews

Except that exhibits are called library marketplace, the app works as expected. Slow to open, you'll have to keep it open during the conference. Would have liked to see a top level list of major speakers. If there is such a list in the app, we'll, that tells you that it is a bit opaque. You need to know where the information is in order to find it.

Very useful and easy to use. Note that you will need to keep an eye on your personal schedule, as it sometimes doesn't load fully. ETA: 2022 lags on opening. Tablet app freezes to sync and then crashes. It's no substitute for paper if not reliable.

Enjoyed the app. Easier than carrying the full schedule and catalog. Search function could be a bit better, perhaps by having better descriptions with better key words included within them. For example, if you put two words in the search, it would only bring back exact matches to the phrase. if the words were in reverse order in the session description, it would return no results.
