ALA - History Section Dinner - Sun. June 24th 6:30pm

Annual History Section Dinner

The RUSA History Section would like to invite to attend the annual dinner on Sunday, June 24th at 6:30pm at the Burma Restaurant.

You don't have to be an "active" member of the Section or even a member at all. Attending the History Section dinner is actually a good way to meet other history minded librarians.


All are welcome and don't hesitate to bring a guest.

This year's dinner will be held at the Burma Restaurant, the site of our last, very enjoyable and reasonably priced, DC dinner. The Restaurant is within walking distance of the Convention Center, in Chinatown.

The nearest metros are Gallery Place-Chinatown (Red, Green and Yellow lines) and Metro Center (Red, Blue and Orange lines).

Dinner will be served "family style" and will be $20.00, which includes tax and tip, menu details follow. If you are interested please RSVP, preferably by Friday June 22, to mkmannix@gmail.com
