I really do like this project, and the text that makes up the booklet!

Re: Data-Driven Decision-Making vs. Discovery-Driven Planning (don’t measure a butterfly using the metrics of a caterpillar)

Completely agreed. Also, in a more practical sense: I'm always struck that when an organization focuses only on numbers, it will always hit a ceiling where it can't do any more. And right before that moment, an organization is trying to do too much with too few resources leading to higher stats but lower quality of service. (Just another argument for human-driven decisions rather than data-driven.)

Re: Jason Griffey

From the first time I met Jason I knew he cared deeply about making ALA and LITA better and more effective. And he doesn't just care about it, he does the work required to see the differences through. He's had a tremendous impact on LITA and I am certain that he will continue and make a larger impact as Director at Large. I would also love to see what he does for ALA in a Councilor at Large position. I know I'll be voting for him, and I strongly urge you to vote for him, too.

I'm terrible at blog names... that's why mine is so generic... that being said, I hope you find one you like, and regardless I'm looking forward to following your posts! :)
