Gee, said me, last spring:
wouldn’t it be neat if there were an AASL blog to report on events at the AASL conference in October, so that all the school librarians who can’t get to the conference in person could find out what was happening there?  LITA and PLA have blogs that post reports from conferences and events, couldn’t we school librarians do that too??  
So I sent in a proposal for a blog to the AASL powers-that-be.  Nothing happened.   After much dithering, I got word that it was a possibility… but there were still hoops to be jumped through at the AASL/ALA offices…

And then it was September, less than a month before the conference, and still, and yet, and we’ll have to see if, and firewalls, and need permissions, and uh oh…
until Damon Abilock of Noodletools.com generously offered server space and (even more important) actual tech support for a semi-official AASL conference blog!!

Check it out:  http://www.noodletools.com/aasl   for up-close-and-personal reports FROM the AASL conference in Pittsburgh.  And my heartfelt gratitude to the volunteers who bravely offered to help get this new publishing venture off the ground!
