    Hi all-

    I was wondering if there were agendas and summaries for GODORT meetings.  I want to virtually participate in the conference, but it's especially hard when the technological avenues for this are down (i.e., GODORT Wiki).  Are there any models that ALA has put forward that are working? It is very hard to say that virtual participation is valid when there aren't ways set up for virtual members to connect to what's happening at a conference.

    ALA Connect has been working, as you know because this page is viewable only by GODORT members who are logged in.  The wiki outage came at a particularly bad time, but GODORT leaders have posted some of the materials you seek to ALA Connect.  While GODORT chose to use the wiki as a primary media some years ago, ALA Connect was also seen as an official source of GODORT information.  It has improved, and I found the scheduler feature helpful for this conference.
