 Thank you for visiting Sara Kelly Johns' campaign site for ALA President
The American Library Association is our profession's
national voice in a time when libraries' accomplishments are astounding while we face uncertain funding to provide services and programs. I envision leading an ALA that:
- vigorously promotes the value of libraries to the public and decision-makers,
- is open, transparent and encourages participation,
- champions intellectual freedom, privacy and equal access to information,
- creates diversity in our profession,
- seeks equitable salaries and benefits for all library workers, and
- provides targeted professional development and training, delivered in every possible format.
We have much to do to in these days
of shrinking and tight budgets, balancing a widening digital divide with the
incredible potential for advancement in services. Connected, we can meet the
challenges.
I am ready to put my energy,
expertise and enthusiasm to work for ALA--and for you.
