    Are you proud of your accomplishments in librarianship or intellectual freedom?  Do you just like answering questions about yourself?  Why not sign up for our IFRT Member Spotlight?!?!

    You will just answer 5 simple questions, and provide and image of  yourself or an image that represents you, along with a 2-3 sentence biography.  

    We will blast everything out in our quarterly newsletters, and on our socials.

    All you need to do is reply to this posting, and I will contact you with the form!

    Be loud and proud and tell everyone you know how important intellectual freedom is to you!

    I also noticed that some of our information was not up to date - as I was wandering through the pages, which makes sense ( under the who we are) . I could check everyone, or I could check myself first, which I know to be true, and everyone could check themselves. Is there a way you would like us to submit it to you and Katie?
