“I am excited to invite you to our upcoming annual ALA Virtual Membership Meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, June 18th.
The Membership Meeting serves as a crucial platform for ALA members to actively engage in discussions surrounding key issues impacting libraries and librarianship. It’s also an opportunity for members to advocate for important causes by introducing Resolutions, Memorials, and Tributes. You can access guidelines on submitting these items online.
In addition to these discussions, attendees will receive valuable updates from ALA leaders, gain insight into the latest organizational developments, and hear reports from myself, along with the President-Elect, Executive Director, and Treasurer.
Please remember to register for this session via Zoom by June 13th to ensure you receive your voting credentials for the meeting. Your active participation is vital, and registering by the deadline ensures that your voice is heard and your vote counts. Voting credentials will be distributed on June 17th. ALA staff may not be able to accommodate members who have not Zoom registered by June 13th.
