HOT NEWS: ALA Website Redesign!

In fall 2008, ALA will unveil a redesigned website that is the
culmination of two years of gathering information from focus groups,
interviews, usability tests, surveys, and other feedback loops. We
invite you to preview the site's new look at www.ala.org/preview. If you
need help locating specific content or updates on the ALA site during the
migration please contact library@ala.org or (800) 545-2433, ext. 2153. 
Please note that during this transition, www.ala.org/alta will not be 
updated. Please visit our work in progress for news and updates at
http://staging.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/alta/index.cfm.
