Re: Time to think about joining the ALA ranks

Do you think we could ask for an article in return? I'm in my first year of ALA membership, and was unable to attend the convention. So I really don't know my way around. If someone from the BOD could post some basic info on how the committees communicate, what the defined priorities are and what's usually involved in taking a position, I'd be open to learning and seeing what I could offer.

For articles, as a newbie to the ALA, I haven't seen that many bulletins. I really like what I've seen, but I wonder what has already been recently published. The fish I have are incredibly fun and interesting to me, but may be old news to the average member. If people want to post where they see info gaps, and what they'd like to see articles about, people in the same boat as me could maybe contribute more.
