LSN's Bookstore in the Exhibit Hall
We are very excited to again add a conference bookstore to our annual meeting!

Books that were used in the development of the educational sessions as well as others recommended by the session presenters will be available for purchase. The bookstore will be open throughout the meeting.
LSN is Going HandoutLESS and You Reap the Rewards!
LSN’s 2010 Annual Meeting and Expo will turn a new leaf. Instead of overprinting and throwing away wasted handouts, session handouts will be accessible through the LSN website. All registered conference participants will have access to the handouts online before and after the conference. NO PAPER HANDOUTS WILL BE PROVIDED.
Before the Conference - registered attendees will receive an e-mail announcing when the session handouts will be available. Once online, you can view the Table of Contents, browse by topic and keywords to ensure you don’t miss out on a session that best suits your interest. Once you’ve made your final session selections, simply print the handouts for the sessions you plan to attend and bring them along.
How do you benefit?
• Previewing handouts prior to the conference will assist you in deciding which sessions are most valuable to you - helping you make the most of your conference learning experience.
• Having session handouts available online and not on paper means you have access to ALL session handouts provided by conference faculty, and not just the sessions you choose to attend.
• After the conference, session handouts (all those submitted by faculty to our website) will remain available to registrants through the LSN website.
• You will help make LSN’s 2010 Annual Meeting and Expo more efficient and environmentally-friendly.
