Call for “grassroots” program proposals for ALA Annual 2009
November 29, 2008 8:08 am American Library AssociationDuring my year as ALA president we are experimenting with ways to increase opportunities for ALA members to contribute to, participate in, and benefit from their association. Unless you are a member of an ALA committee or board, it is difficult to produce a program at the Annual Conference. Furthermore, depending upon the sponsoring unit, the lead time for approval of a program can be a year or more.
I invite “grassroots” proposals for programs to be produced at the 2009 Annual Conference in Chicago. This program is designed to give members who don’t normally have the opportunity an opportunity produce a program and to reduce the lead time to assure programs that address timely topics.
For guidelines, deadlines, and a link to the submission form, are available on my Web site. Ot also provides information on other initiatives promoting member participation.
Students in the MLS programs at the University of Wisconsin—Madison and UCLA will play a significant role in selecting programs.
If you have an idea, please submit a proposal!

As a real estate agent, you can imagine that things have not been going all that well for me. So I was doing some real estate related searches and ended up coming up with something completely different than what I was looking for. It’s a video that talks about “virtual real estate” and how you can make a ton of money with it. The video itself is quite interesting and provides some food for thought. It might even make you want to jump into this market with both feet. If you do, or even if you don’t, try to close the main page and you will be asked to stay on the page. Go ahead and do that. Then try to leave the next page and once again, you will be asked to stay on the page. Stay on the page again. On this page you will be offered a $20 discount on the virtual real estate package but you will also get some free RSS indexing software for internet marketing and a free training download that is supposed to be worth $2,450, without having to buy a thing. So, even if you are not at all interested, you can get some pretty cool free stuff! Here is a link to the video: http://goo.gl/Hgukk
