Re: [LM_NET] We really do have a voice! Sara Kelly Johns for ALA President

[Shonda Brisco <sbrisco@GMAIL.COM>]

I want to second Barbara's observations and recommendation of Sara Kelly
Johns as ALA president.  I've had the great honor of meeting with Sara and
talking with her about several school library-related issues and I was
delighted to find out that... "she gets it!"

I know that there are many qualified individuals who come up for election as
ALA president, but now more than ever, school librarians need a voice from
the TOP to guide us (and others) in making school libraries across the
nation a vital component in the academic lives of our students.

If you haven't had the chance to meet Sara in person, then definitely
check-out her website to learn more about her!  She's been working right
along with us all the way and should now help to guide the organization in
meeting the needs of school libraries and librarians around the nation.
