[CASL-L] FW: [NHSLMA] Get Out the VOTE!!!

[Barbara Johnson]

CASL Members,

I am forwarding information from Susan Ballard, NESLA representative, about
the upcoming ALA elections and the importance school librarians will
play…please keep the following list handy as you cast your votes for ALA
Council and other offices.

Barb

“I am connecting to ask those of you who are ALA/AASL members to be sure
and VOTE in the upcoming elections. All web voters will be receiving
ballots within the next few weeks (between March 12-14) and we have until
April 8 to participate. In particular I hope you will vote for the *15
School Librarian and School Library Educators who are running for ALA
Council.* Presently, school librarians are under-represented in Council
and, as this is governing body of ALA, it’s important that our voice there
is strong.

Additionally, AASL Past-President, Helen Adams, who is the current chair of
the ALA Intellectual Freedom Committee, has asked for our help in *electing
members who support IF* and I have shared their names, too.

Full disclosure – While I don’t want to come across as a pest, I will be
back (probably a couple of times) to remind you all about this because it
is so important.

Thanks for your consideration and understanding,” Susan
