ALA Council

Hello Council colleagues!

As I shared I would the other day, I have prepared and submitted a resolution to the Resolutions Committee to postpone voting on the FTRWG resolutions until the Forward Together Fiscal Analysis Working Group has had time to review them, allowing us to vote on these crucial issues with the essential financial information at hand. 

Thank you to Councilors-At-Large Ann Symons and Erica Freudenberger for seconding. If you would like to review the submitted resolution, you can find a Google Doc titled Resolution, FT Financial Implications at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Jcm8AaU4tZD5palwU74gssTnqkmYamer4vQExXmHufo/edit?usp=sharing. As a note, the PLA Board discussed this proposal and endorse postponing the vote until we have a better understanding of the fiscal implications.

Thank you to everyone throughout this process for their hard work, from SCOE to my colleagues on the FTWG, the FTRWG, the fiscal analysis group, and the Executive Board. There's such strength in a collaborative process.
