<p class="MsoNormal">ALA Virtual Membership Meeting 2015 (VMM15). VMM15 takes place on Thursday, June 4, 1:30 p.m. - 2:30 p.m. (CDT). Virtual Membership Meetings are an important way in which personal members may affect what ALA does. VMM is an annual online
forum where ALA leaders present information about topics of interest to the general membership. All ALA personal members may register for and participate in the VMM. Virtual Membership Meetings are part of ALA's ongoing efforts to reach out interactively to
members about its strategic direction, budget priorities and topics of interest. Live captioning is provided for all participants. Also see the ALA Connect Member Group for information about VMM15 and to participate in pre-meeting discussions and review detailed
materials and information. It is your opportunity to exchange perspectives, ideas, and opinions with both old and new colleagues and friends.<o:p></o:p></p>
