[OPLINLIST] FW: ALA Election News

[Hickson-Stevenson, Pamela]

Hello -

Below is an e-mail I sent to the OPLIN list on March 11.  I decided to resend today because of the OPLIN e-mail problems and because the ALA elections are beginning.

I apologize for the duplication but I'm afraid a number of you may not have received this.
