Town Hall commentary from Mark Beatty and Michelle Boule
Listen to Vice President of LITA Mark Beatty and LITA Emerging Leader Michelle Boule give a post-Town Hall breakdown of what happened during the meeting, why LITA members Have More Fun, and what we can look forward to in the coming year.

Greetings from the LITA Vice-President
In the second of our vodcasts, here’s Mark Beatty (current Vice-President and President-Elect of LITA) talking about the LITA Town Meeting and what you can do to help guide LITA this year. Again, apologies for the low audio quality… Here’s Mark!
Greetings from the LITA President
I managed to corner both current LITA president Bonnie Postlewaite and Vice-President and President-Elect Mark Beatty at ALA Midwinter 2007 and get some brief video of them. We at LITABlog realize that not everyone attends conferences, and so might not recognize Bonnie or Mark. Hopefully these next couple of videos will put a face with the names…I apologize for the low audio, at Annual we’ll have a slightly better sound rig. First up: Bonnie Postlewaite, LITA President
