LEADS from LLAMA

Dear LLAMA Members:

Please consider the following invitation, and share it with your colleagues.

The LLAMA Mentoring Committee is beginning recruitment for mentors and mentees for our July 2011-June 2012 year. The mentoring program pairs librarians who are currently in leadership positions with librarians who are interested in becoming leaders.

For mentors, it is a chance to pass on your experience and knowledge by working one-on-one with an enthusiastic colleague who is ready to learn and benefit from your experience.

For mentees, it is a great opportunity to learn from an accomplished leader how to acquire the skills, attitudes and relationships that you will need to move into leadership roles.

Participants must be ALA and LLAMA members as of the start of the program, and must attend the Mentor/Mentee orientation at ALA Annual in New Orleans, June 2011.

The deadline to apply to become a mentor or mentee is November 19, 2010. To apply, please go to:

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SL9TCWH  for the mentee form, and to http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SLJ5QD9  for the mentor form.

For more information on the program, contact committee vice chair Kay Bauman at kbauman@metrolibrary.org
