Some libraries are waiving late fees for NLW. Wish we’d thought of that at my library.

Hi. Lord help me, I’m posting from Bloggercon. They are singing the Star Spangled Banner with Joey Villa on accordian. Just FYI, the talk last night went really pretty well. Notes are here. Don’t read them if you’re planning to see me this evening.
free stuff for national library week
National Library Week starts tomorrow. Gale is making 24 of its databases free for the whole week.

Hi. Please pay your taxes so the government can continue to fund public libraries, at least a little bit. My blogging class at PALINET was cancelled for May which is a bit of a disappointment. I think I was a bit naive going into it. PALINET solicited me to teach the class, but perhaps they were also expecting me to aggressively promote it as well. In any case, people didn’t register, the class will not be taught, I have a free weekend, plus one blogging/RSS class all ready to teach if anyone is looking for one. Please say hello if you see me at BloggerCon.
ALA elections
ALA Council has been discussing the hybrid election a lot this week. If you voted in the ALA elections, whether electronically or with a paper ballot, and wouldn’t mind letting me know how you found the experience [easy? hard? fun? unfun?] I could pass on some data to my Council colleagues. Thanks.
