• ALA Virtual Membership Meeting

  Thursday, June 6, 2013 4:00 PM

  The meeting will begin with a “State of the Association” update and a recap of initiatives during my Presidential year, an update about ALA’s 2015 Strategic Plan from Executive Director Keith Michael Fiels, and a financial update by James (Jim) Neal, ALA Treasurer. These updates will be followed by an opportunity for registrants to discuss (via text chat) and vote on any resolutions or testimonials offered by members. Only current ALA personal members may vote. Any remaining time on the agenda will be used as an open forum for chat about topics of interest as ranked by members via a poll taken early in the VMM. The top topics will be announced during the meeting. Live captioning will be provided for all participants so that all registrants can follow the discussion and comments.
