Good day ALA Members, This is a shameless plug for your help in completing my petition process for Councilor-at-Large for ALA. Not only are libraries a focal point for a "Call to Action", never have we seen a more dire need to be active and collaborative in preserving the longevity and relevance of libraries during this unprecedented time. Please consider clicking the link below to help give me an opportunity to be on the ALA Ballot for 2021. http://www.ala.org/template.cfm?template=/CFApps/epetition/index.cfm&pid=4654241EF27EAD52 I have served in both Librarian and Administrative roles for over twenty years, from Youth Librarian for Detroit Public Library, Branch Manager for Grosse Pointe Public Library, Regional Director for the U.S Virgin Islands, to my current role as Library Director for Gladwin County District Library. I hope to take my many years of experience and bring it to the national level. Please consider taking a moment to click this link. Thank you in advance and I wish you well during these crazy times.
