I think and I know things

Not too happy with @CapitalOne Savor card rn -- I tried to make a payment in full 2 months ago but the app errored it out -- I've been charged interest even after paying in full every month since

@HPVanDyne Bring your ALA-governance service experience to the division or round table of your choice :)

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

Handy guide. So simple and easy!

[EveryLibrary @EveryLibrary]

Don't like a book at the library and don't know what to do about it?

We wrote this handy guide just for you!

Gotta love it when library friends like @warmaiden get RETWEETED BY @MCHammer
Check out the @broome_library book launch for @ParisNoire and the preparty!

@ThatAndromeda @lindsonmars the two (virtual and Council) are not mutually exclusive ;)

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

@NoetheMatt Which ones? (one of my comments could be taken that way, I was thinking more about the wordsmithing by 183 people being unworkable at times) #ALACouncil

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

@hedgielib @hollysue That's still $6.39 per pound... wait until after Halloween and buy it on sale for less?

[Alan S. Inouye @AlanSInouye]

Tomorrow--this looks worth a look. @LibraryPolicy

[Washington Teachers' Union, AFT Local #6 @WTUTeacher]

Thank you @ALALibrary for opposing proposed cuts to School Library Programs across DC Public Schools.

We understand the pressures on the city budget; however, we can't ignore cuts to vital programs being made in our local schools.

@SenBobCasey Thank you for signing in support of emergency funding for libraries! Our communities rely on library services, and we're happy to know you're prioritizing keeping #LibrariesStrong.

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

Just finished rereading Words of Radiance, next up a re-read of Oathbringer - both by @BrandSanderson

[Ship Library @shiplibrary]

We'd love to know what books you're reading while quarantined at home. Share your #QuarantineReads!

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

@RobertEForte imho March is a little early for deciding about a late June conf. If it were me, I'd watch the pandemic rates and if things haven't plateaued by mid-May at the latest then consider canceling

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

Have you asked your elected officials to #FundLibraries? With millions of dollars in federal funding at stake, now is the time to take action.

@eclasper could you add a dumpster under that fire? ;)

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

@InkyLibrarian Hiya, I believe there is an internal copy that will be used to verify minutes/summary purposes. I have had success asking for snippets of specific discussions

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

@eclasper @andrewkpace @lindsonmars I dunno, @andrewkpace is a glutton for punishment through financial review and extrapolation ;)

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

@eclasper This this this #alacouncil

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

@lindsonmars We should also remember that EB has the fiduciary responsibility & some of the info won't come out publicly with some of the details to #alacouncil
#alafinancialdiscussion

[Aaron W. Dobbs @awd]

@keribrary @phepbu @lindsonmars Odds are that it would have to be a guerrilla effort. A formal effort would add to the already surprisingly large #alacouncil A/V costs. :/
