Washington Office Issues

Below you will find links to each of the Washington Office's Issues pages. If you find broken links or have feedback of any kind, please don't hesitate to let us know.


On September 1, 2008, ALA will unveil a redesigned web site 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, and to see the Washington Office's work in progress at http://staging.ala.org/ala/aboutala/offices/washoff/index.cfm.

Beginning August 1, information on our web pages will NOT be updated until the new launch in September. Please check the District Dispatch, the Washington Office blog for regular updates and information during this time. 

You may contact the ALA Library at library@ala.org (or 800-545-2433, x2153) if further assistance is needed locating specific content or updates during our migration.
