Our New Digs

Posted in Fun Times on July 27th, 2010 by Matthew

For the fourth time since the company began back in 2002, Research Solutions has moved into a new office. You may be thinking, “So what? It’s probably just another faceless office with no character.” Well, my friend, you are wrong.

This time around, we moved into a Chico business park called Philadelphia Square.

The interesting thing about this business park is that all of the buildings, about thirty of them, are modeled after historic buildings in Philadelphia. For instance, there’s Betsy Ross’ House, the Federal building and the Capitol Building.

We’re in the Franklin Library.

The sign out front says it serve as the first Library of Congress, which, considering the nature of our business, is interesting.

At the very least, this place definitely provides a more interesting lunchtime stroll!

AALL in the Mile-High City

Posted in Uncategorized on July 21st, 2010 by Matthew

Last week, we exhibited at the AALL conference in Denver. This was our third year attending the conference, and each year we’ve had a great time. Much of the fun is meeting the people that come by our booth and learning about what they do. It’s a great way to keep up with the pulse of the industry.

As exhibitors, we bring pens, letter openers and buttons to give away, and people seem to love it. The buttons have sayings on them that are geared towards librarians, and it’s great when they bring a big smile and laugh from folks who are just stopping by. We also take names for a daily drawing, and the response is always the same. “Oh, sure… why not. It doesn’t matter since I never win anything anyways.” Well, here’s proof that someone wins!

  • Jennifer Berman, McDermott Will & Emery LLP
  • Kate Martin, McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP
  • Ann Morris, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP

These three won a $100 giftcard to the choice of Barnes & Noble, Starbucks or Amazon. If you’d like a chance to win next year, keep an eye out for the blue and orange booth at the next show!
