<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=625562617-01052010>I want to thank OLA
for the terrific support you gave me as a candidate for president of the
American Library Association. Now that I have been successful, I know that
I will need your support more than ever. I was very touched by the
OLA Board's endorsement and appreciated all the support that came from State
Librarian Jim Scheppke and OLA's Chapter Councilor ALA Suzanne Sager on
libs-or. Oregon's library community is vibrant and very welcoming to
all who work in and support libraries. It's been my privilege to meet so
many wonderful people from the library community here in Oregon. I
look forward to carrying on our important work together.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
