I’ve been thinking about the implication of Free Range Librarian has a few words about it and there’s some back and forth from the SRRT list republished in Library Juice this week.

ALA post conference
And speaking of Orlando, I’ll be staying late this year so I can speak at the Counterpoise post-conference [well worth the price of admission] and am looking to share accomodations on Wednesday night June 30th. I’m cheap but tidy. Anyone staying late or living nearby please le tme know.
ala needs councilors
Please consider running for ALA Council and keeping me company during long council meetings. As a bonus perk, if you were already a Councilor, you’d have free wireless at Orlando this year.
Richard Clark to Speak at ALA – who would YOU like to see speaking
Due to a weekend wedding, I’m going to have to miss Richard Clarke speak at ALA. I will also, sadly, miss the Disney protest. won’t get there until Monday. Even though he’s technically on “our side” he supports the PATRIOT Act and is not one of the top 1000 people I think of when I hear the word “libraries.” On the other hand, I’m not sure who I would pick. TechnoBiblio wants to know who you would pick.
Jacso, you’ve done it again!
How to get all those old Booklist reviews an illustrated tale by Peter Jacso, the one who put the ALA website in his “jeers for 2003” list.
Special jeers are due for timing it for the Library Week festivities when more visitors than usual could see this embarrassment of the association and the profession.
