One of the things I have been happiest to do as ALA's Vermont Chapter Councilor is to vote to give Dolly Parton an honorary lifetime membership.

We voted on this in January. For some ALA reason the press release came out Thursday. Please enjoy this READ poster with national treasure, Dolly Parton.

Dolly Parton Awarded Honorary Membership in the American Library Association

CHICAGO — The American Library Association (ALA) is set to confer an honorary lifetime membership upon award-winning singer-songwriter, actress, businesswoman and philanthropist Dolly Parton for her longstanding support and commitment to inspiring a love of books and reading. Recommended by the ALA Executive Board and elected by the ALA Council, honorary membership is the highest honor given by the Association and conferred upon a living person whose outstanding contributions have made a lasting impact on librarianship, libraries, and the communities they serve.

@jessamyn Excuse me for interrupting on your (US) political issues with my Canadian opinions, but... It's my opinion that you'd all be a lot happier and safer and well-off if you simply made Dolly your Queen. With all the powers you currently divide between your Senate and House and President tucked safely under her wing. (Not sure I got your legislature named properly, but I think you get my drift.)
