Teaching is tougher than ever these days. But this note from 2 boys is something I will cherish for a long time. #OneMoreDayTillWinterBreak #EduSky

The loss of YALSA is tough, it feels like it’s just one more example of how undervalued Teen Services (and teen patrons) are. #alaac25
At #alaac25, the ALA Council will vote on a recommendation for ALS to absorb YALSA, which would be dissolved as a division of ALA. It is expected to pass, and governing bodies for both divisions are working under that assumption and planning for the future as they mourn the loss of YALSA.
YALSA Expected To Be Dissolved, Absorbed by ALSC in 2026
In June, ALA Council will decide the fate of YALSA, voting on the recommendation that the teen division be eliminated and its work be moved under the umbrella of ALSC.
