It's the offspring of Fender Bender!
I'm sorry I couldn't resist, I had to get in on this!

Hi Sara,
Back in the old days before Matthew Bender was acquired by
LexisNexis, MB used to sponsor several AALL travel and education grants
each year. On the Monday evening of the annual meeting, MB would host
an awards dinner at some nice location, typically a museum or a good
restaurant, for that year's award winners. Past winners were also
invited to the dinner, so it has long been an annual event that
MB-funded grant winners, or "Bender Babies," looked forward to. Since
LexisNexis acquired Matthew Bender they have continued the tradition,
although the LexisNexis reps persist in getting the name wrong and
calling the old-timers "Baby Benders." I suppose eventually it will
come to be known simply as the LexisNexis dinner, but librarians have
long memories.

Have the LexisNexis Bender Babies dinner invitations
gone out this year? I haven't received one, so I'm wondering once
again: is this the year LexisNexis stops the tradition?
