Before your 5:15 #mla18 session, fill out a postcard at an MLA Advocacy table (2nd and 3rd fl. of the Hilton or 2nd fl. of the Sheraton) to tell your representatives what's on your mind!
Have an idea for book? Join a #mla18 workshop on book development led by representatives from @Palgrave_, @NYUpress, @PrincetonUPress, and @MLAnews (5:15 today, Gramercy East, Hilton): mla.confex.com/mla/2018/meet… #s670
Buy a book! See the city! If you purchase a book from an exhibitor in Americas I or Rhinelander, take your receipt to the information desk outside Rhinelander to get a two-ride MetroCard while supplies last!
Join Diana Taylor tonight for her #mla18 presidential address! “¡Presente!” is equally a call to arms and a declaration of solidarity as we think through what it means to live, work, and think alongside one another. 6:45 p.m. in the Sheraton Metropolitan Ballroom East.

Upload your #MLA18 presentations so that victims of the #bombcyclone can experience them too! xitter.cf/MLACommons/status/9492…
Hey, #MLA18, are you sharing your work on academia.edu? Why not use @humcommons CORE? It’s a nonprofit platform run by the MLA; work is indexed by Google Scholar et al; you get a DOI; nobody has to sign up to download your stuff—and we don’t send creepy emails!
The #mla18 Possible Futures Career Fair starts now in Hilton Americas I (accessible from the third floor). Come explore the range of career paths open to humanities professionals. outreach.mla.org/attendees/
Take a few minutes to stop by one of the MLA advocacy tables (Hilton, Promenade, second and third floors; Sheraton, second floor) and send a postcard to Congress about the value of the humanities! Or use the form on the MLA Action Network: action.mla.org/take-action/
If you're requesting a #mla18 refund, you can find our address and more information at the bottom of the Registration and Hotels page. mla.org/MLA-Home/Convention/…
Please note that the #mla18 session 194, "European Regions: Progress in Literary Culture" (scheduled for 7:00 p.m.) has been cancelled.
