It's that time again. Time to register for the annual AJL Convention and time again to recruit seasoned members to meet, greet and guide newbies at this year's conference. Modeling the concept after that of other professional organizations such as ALA, we of AJL strive to ensure that all attending derive the maximum benefit from their experience. By contact the Mentoring Committee before the conference begins, mentor pairs can jump start the process by contacting one another and reviewing the new participant's goals for the action-packed 3-day session in Houston. If you're hesitating about the commitment, kindly remember the adage : "Mi-kol talmidai hiskalti. Both mentor and mentee are assured to come away winners! Oh, and by the way, this pair may continue for an academic year based on availability.
Are you a library student, recent graduate, or simply a first-timer who'd like to give this a try? Kindly send along your contact information with goals you'd like to achieve to Stephanie (Sara Leah) Gross: [email protected]. Please also remember to apply for the appropriate stipends and scholarships, as well. Looking forward to hearing from you all soon!
