[LM_NET] 39% increase in AASL voting!

[Sara Kelly Johns <sarakellyjohns@YAHOO.COM>]

Whoo-hoo!  Thanks to all who took the time to vote in
the AASL/ALA elections! It means  a bigger voice for
our profession.  Here's the AASL Press Release:

<http://www.ala.org/ala/pressreleases2006/may2006/GetOuttheVotecampaign.htm>

This is really encouraging to those of us on the AASL
GOTV committee (Cassandra Barnett, Linda Williams,
Floyd Pentlin, Julie Walker, Kathy Agarwal and me)
and, now that we have mechanisms and timeline defined,
we hope to increase that number even more next year.
The e-mail blast and postcards sent out by SLMS' Pat
Shanley and Rebecca Gerald was a big part of this in
NYS, I know.

Best, Sara Kelly Johns
