Is anyone here a member of LAMA or more specifically the Systems and Services Section? I am asking because I just joined ALA a month ago after not being a member since library school, and I chose to join LAMA because I am in management, and because I read that SASS is supossed to be the ADS component of the group, but it seems very inactive or at least quiet.
I am toying with a blog post that will be sort of an open letter to Jim Rettig (ALA preseident elect) about how ALA really needs an ADS/Circulation SIG or committee because I feel that our needs are not being met. Before I post something like that I wanted to know if anyone has any info about any of the exisiting ALA avenues that sort of address ADS and circulation.
Do they work? Do they meet our needs? I am inclined to say no since I don't ever hear anyone speaking or writing about them.
Any thoughts?
