At the April 11 VALL meeting hosted by South
University, VALL members had the opportunity to write in the Five Star VALL
Memories Book passed around by Sally Wambold. If you were not at the meeting,
you can still share your VALL memories by posting in the comments section
of this blog entry or emailing them directly to Sally Wambold (swambold@richmond.edu) The 30th
Anniversary Committee will be compiling these “memories” as a permanent record
of the association’s anniversary.
The entries so far have been thoughtful and
thought-provoking. Thank you to those who have shared their memories. The
committee looks forward to receiving more memories from members to create an
anecdotal history of this association whose members have served on multiple
library association boards including AALL and who have authored many
publications.
Thirty years is a milestone worth celebrating
and we look forward to receiving lots of memories from you!

I remember my first VALL meeting in 1992. It was in Richmond and it was one of those two-day meetings that VALL used to have. I learned a lot about the new profession I was in, and I was struck by how helpful and friendly VALL members were, and how welcoming. Many things have changed in the profession since then, but the essence of VALL hasn't changed, and I hope that the future will see it holding strong.
