Library Education, Recruitment and Mentoring Committee Report
Submitted by Kathleen Wade, Chair
- Committee members determined during the November 2004 conference that we would present a poster session on the 2 main programs that the LERM committee supports: the Informational Interview Project [http://www.cla-net.org/resources/interviews.php] and the Mentor - Protégé Project [http://www.cla-net.org/membership/mentorship.php]. We look forward to informing the membership as to how LERM makes a difference for CLA and for our future librarians.
- During the San Jose conference, Mr. Les Kong encouraged committee participation to new members, (especially the LERM committee -- thank you so much, Les!). We gained 2 new members at this conference, too! Welcome Christine and Christine!
- After the November conference, LERM experienced a rush of new applications for the Mentor - Protégé program. At least a dozen new protégés have been added to our already active roles. However, we are in need of mentors to apply to help us meet this new demand. Go to: http://www.cla-net.org/membership/mentorship.php to find out about how to become a mentor, then go to http://www.cla-net.org/included/docs/mentorapp.pdf to fill out an application!
Watch this space for LERM program updates!
