MLA '12: Automated Roommate Match Service [BETA]

This is a fully automated service to provide contacts to librarians who wish to share a room at MLA '12 in Seattle. To search for a potential roommate, please fill in the form below and hit continue; the system will automatically search for a match in the database. NOTE: the system ONLY will match GENDER and SMOKING and will tell you if it has found a match and notify both you and your prospective roommate via email. The email will include your other details (circadian clock, age group, etc.) and you will receive the same details about your contact.

It is your responsibility to contact your prospective roommate and make arrangements and reservations. This web service is for helping prospective meeting roommates to exchange contact information only.

If the system cannot find a roommate for you immediately, your data will be stored and compared with future incoming requests. In case of a match, you will be notified via email as described above.

Note: whenever there is a match, the entries of both matched contacts are removed from the database and are not available for future matches. If your first match does not work out, come back and try again!
