That was fantastic!

Despite having gone through many issues through the years, there was so much here that I hadn't seen--and was delighted to see! Fantastic job all around (even by the lip-unsyncing AL staff members ;>).

We've been everywhere video

What a fun video! It was great to see the variety of people, formats, subjects that American Libraries has covered in 100 years. I was disappointed, however, that there was no citation for the music. Johnny Cash (performer) and Geoff Mack (composer/songwriter) are not in public domain yet.

Thanks! And thanks for

Thanks! And thanks for supplying the overlooked nods to Mr. Cash and Mr. Mack, too.
