ALA President Leslie Burger established the ALA Member Participation Task Force “to develop recommendations for expanding member opportunities, especially for the for the next generation of leaders, to participate in their association in meaningful ways.” I chair the Task Force. A new member who joined this past week has agreed to share with me ALA's communications to her. I won't repeat here my long post to Task Force's blog. For the text of the two emails the new member received a very short time after joining online, see that post. I have also commented briefly on them and ask others to share their thoughts. Please comment at the Task Force blog.
