[Eg-oversight-board] Outreach update

[Kathy Lussier]

I forgot to add this to my update.

We have a lot of staffing for the exhibit booth, but there are still 
some time slots available. If you know anyone who will be attending ALA, 
please encourage them to volunteer for a session. If they don't feel 
comfortable doing it on their own, they could always buddy up with one 
of the veterans who will be there.

Thanks!
Kathy
