A good time was had by me (and pretty much everyone I met or saw seemed to be having a great time, too)

Many moons ago I met Michael Golrick, when I was being oriented to ALA as an ALA Committee Intern. He had a long string of ribbons (and I&#8217;d seen others in the hallways with a few ribbons) and was able to talk extensively about the participation they represented. I then [...]]]></description>

Currently I&#8217;m maintaining my 4sq Mayorality (of #ala12 as well as my hotel) &#8212; now you know what&#8217;s *really* important, right?

The morning started with sitting in on the Freedom to Read Foundation Board Orientation (I thought it was a general orientation to FTRF) and then sitting in the first half of the FTRF Business meeting.

		<description><![CDATA[In my view, raising dues is not a sustainable answer.

We cannot become/remain solvent by continually raising the member-dues rate(s).
Membership demographics suggest that ALA will see a rapid decline over the next several years (as the late 1960s and 1970s membership boom retires out)

		<description><![CDATA[For those not in the know (like me until a week or so ago)&#8230; ALA has begun (again) discussion on strategies for adjusting dues.
The last time ALA has discussed this was back around 2006 when people started complaining about the dues structure and how &#8220;one-size for all&#8221; was unfair to certain groups of the membership. The [...]]]></description>

Enough that the vague intention of &#8220;Reboot the Blog&#8221; has crystallized into actually updating (well, finally creating) a tagline to sort of define what I should talk about.
As always, one of my friends said it better than I could:
