ExpensivePink Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Hi everyone, just wondering if any students/prospective students are involved in the professional associations for librarians? When i was in an MLS program, I greatly enjoyed SLA, and actually found my first professional gig through networking done there. Unfortunately, I have to pay for memberships out of pocket so I take turns with membership - no way I can afford them all. Now that I'm hoping to return to school, I plan to join EVERYTHING -- the student rates are so much more manageable. I just got back from ALA Midwinter and had a great time. Got a chance to speak with a lot of librarians I look up to (from their writings or leadership). Anyone else involved, officially or unofficially?

annieca Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 If I go to grad school in the UK, I'm considering joining CILIP which is the UK version of ALA. Otherwise, probably will join SAA at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
