Hello everyone,

Thank you to all who participated in this survey. The survey was
created and analyzed by Oleg Kagan. He has posted the analysis and
results to his blog (link below). The results are very interesting and
I know they are being shared with the ALA Elections Committee. Please
leave a comment on Oleg's blog to continue this discussion.
