Boopsie- Now Boopsie™ has partnered with ALA to bring you ALA Mobile…the fastest, easiest way to access important and useful information about the ALA Chicago show, directly from your cell phone. ALA Mobile requires access to the data network on your phone. You should make sure you monitor your data use if you do not have an unlimited data plan. To get ALA Mobile on your cell phone, go to http://ala.boopsie.com from your mobile phone's browser; or simply text the word "ALA2009" to 41411. You will receive a text messge back with a link to download and install the small application to your phone. Just follow the simple steps. It only takes a few seconds. Then click on the ALA Logo and select 1. To find an exhibitor,select the "ALA 2009 Exhibitors" channel, and start typing an exhibitor name. For example, to find "Ingram Library Services, Inc."all you have to type is 'ing l s'. ALA Mobile is powered by Boopsie's SmartPrefix search, so you only type the first few letters of each word of the comapny name- that should save you some time. 2. To view a list of sessions at the show, select the "ALA 2009 Sessions" channel. You will see a list of sessions. To find the "Catalog Management Interest Group" session, just type 'cat man i g'- it will pop right up to the top. If you want to see all the sessions on Wednesday, just type 'wed' and the list of all sessions on Wednesday will appear. Clicking on a session will transfer you to your mobile phone's brower and give you an overview of the session. You can also find local restaurants, hotels and even taxi services through the ALA Mobile. Just click on one of the other channels, and search the same way you did for "Exhibitors" or "Sessions." It's easy and fun. Enjoy! Feel free to send feedback to support@boopsie.com
