Beverly Laughlin, Executive Director, stated that membership renewals were sent out later than usual. The editorial board of the journal "Louisiana Libraries" has decided to look into the possibility of changing authority. Joy Lowe, Academic Library Award's Council Representative thanked the board for the travel increase, while also mentioning that in past years there have been problems with anti-Castro Cubans seeking reinstatement of personal libraries or personal home collections not public or academic libraries.
