ALA Task Forces
For what it’s worth, I think there are several Task Forces considering stuff at the ALA level.
The one I am most familiar with (I’m on its Reactor Panel) is the ALA Graduated Dues Task Force. This task force will be reporting about the likely costs the association would incur if the decision were made to do a comprehensive study on a salary-based dues structure. The numbers I saw in the report are, to me, pretty optimistic, lowball figures. (in the range of about half a million dollars)
Anyone know of other task forces? I only find Division-level task force pages when I search the ALA site.
[…] As mentioned previously, I am on the Reactor Panel for the Presidential Task Force on the Graduated Dues Study. My involvement pre-dates the Task Force creation from while I was a (physically present) “virtual member” of the ALA Membership Committee. […]
