Notes
This CMS record previously aggregated ALA's past and future conferences (Annual Conference, LibLearnX, and the discontinued Midwinter Meetings) with an invalid date range scraped from the listing page. It has been normalized to the ALA Annual Conference & Exhibition brand, anchored to the confirmed 2027 New Orleans edition. Exact daily opening hours of the exhibition are not published on the official site, so they are omitted.
