Hey all, 

Would there be interest in a short share about our Book to Action series at the Ideas Exchange? I’d be happy to share for a few minutes or poster session too. Libraries are doing some really great programming, tacking some important issues.

We have a new leader, Shari Werb, and she is full of great ideas and eager to chart a more strategic path for the CFB in general and the state centers in particular.

And I'm also mindful that a handful of state cfbs don't do LAL ... so perhaps that should be a breakout session or even a virtual meeting in advance of the June gathering?

Is there a way that we might create a shared calendar of events that each of us could point to from our own sites?  We've tried developing new joint programs, but given that the lion's share of us are understaffed and overtaxed, I'd like to think about how we can take what we already do and maximize effects.
