Web site Conversion Status Report
ALA began migration to a new Web site and content management system in the spring of 2003. While conversion efforts are ongoing, some content from the former Web site may be either deprecated or repurposed in a new format. The chart below, organized by ALA unit, will be updated regularly as ALA staff and member Web developers continue their work. If you are having trouble finding content on ALA's Web site, you can try one of the three following options:
-
Search our site, using the search box in the upper right hand corner of this page.
-
Browse the ALA site archive at http://archive.ala.org. Please note that content in the archive may be superseded by newer content on this Web site.
-
Contact the ALA Library at library@ala.org. They may be able to help you find your content from a variety of sources.
If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact Debi Lewis, Web Development Manager, at delewis@ala.org, or at 1.800.545.2433, ext. 3272. You can also submit questions via our online Feedback Form.
