Dear ALA:=0D
=0D
I understand your restricting the conference handouts to attendees only, =
but
I would like your consideration that some of us were not able to attend t=
he
conference, but would like to be able to access the handouts.=0D
=0D
Even though the conference was in Kansas City, probably the closest it wi=
ll
ever be to my school, I could not afford to attend.=0D
I might have attended if I had received the $500 I applied for.=0D
=0D
Our school budget was cut $300,000 this year and we are facing another cu=
t
of $400-600,000 for next year. Our Professional Development Committee wil=
l
not be able to pay for conference expenses at all this year.=0D
=0D
My library budget has been cut 65% in the last two years. My contract was
amended from 200 days to 180 days. My paycheck is $200 less a month than =
it
was last year.=0D
=0D
=0D
Anyway, thank you for your time.=0D
