John Chrastka, Membership Marketing Manager at ALA, has started MemberBlog for ALA members (duh).

"Members of the American Library Association are change-agents within their communities. From public to academic to school to research and special libraries, ALA members have an immediate, dynamic impact on the quality of life in a community; on successful student learning outcomes; on the sustainability of critical engagements with the past and the extending access to tools for charting a new future; and on the usefulness of work/life in every field of human endeavor. And this blog would like to show them off."

His latest post is a list of Travel Awards for Annual 2007, which is basically ways to help get your way paid to attend the big show.

And you want to attend the big show, because we have some very cool things planned. Things I can't talk about yet or I'd have to put a hit out on you.
