Hello everyone!
Has everything from the YALSA ALA site moved to this blog or YALSA wikis? I’m curious because I would like to see a more official election slate, like ALSC’s (http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/alsc/aboutalsc/governance/election/2009slate.cfm) available on the YALSA site. It appears that many of the pages on the YALSA ALA site have not been updated since 2007. Sorry if I missed this announcement, or if the official slate is available and I just cannot find it.
The official YALSA slate is what is listed on this blog post. You can find election information on the YALSA wiki at http://wikis.ala.org/yalsa/index.php/YALSA_Election_Information. Also, there is a series of podcasts with candidates available on the blog at http://yalsa.ala.org/blog/2009/03/03/yalsa-election-podcasts/
