------------------
Not to be outdone by our NERALLD colleagues...  the photos from MWALL are also posted.  Go to:  http://iall.net/mwall/  We may have had fewer in attendance (not by much), but we have many more photos! <grin>  It was also great to talk with our NERALLD friends via videoconferencing.  We also plan to have a few of our sessions posted soon with video streaming and illustrated audio.

Also announcing...  After serving well for five years, Ron Balko stepped down as MWALL's fearless leader.  Elected by acclamation for a two-year term is Jenise Rowekamp from the Univ of Minnesota.  Carroll Hightower from Carleton College was elected newsletter editor.  (These are the only two elected positions in MWALL).  Thanks Ron!  And congratulations Jenise!

BTW... for those wondering about the legality of posting people's photos on web sites, Kathleen Ford came up with the following tidbit which should be of interest to us all:

Here's a related bit of trivia I came across as I was going through 
email today:

=====5. Auntie Nolo: "He Stole My Pic & Posted It!"

    Auntie Nolo, our persnickety in-house legal maven,
    always has an answer to legal dilemmas. Whether
    you like the answer or not is another thing
    altogether.
 
    A reader asks:
    "What rights does a person have if their picture
    was taken and then posted to an Internet website
    without their permission? Are they entitled to any
    profits of the website? Can they sue if the
    picture was uncomplimentary?"
