Scholarships are available for the 2008 LAMA Preconference
An Inside Look at Leadership
Friday, June 27, 2008; Anaheim, California
The Library Administration and Management Association will award three $500 scholarships for "An Inside Look at Leadership," a LAMA preconference being held at the American Library Association annual conference in Anaheim, CA, on June 27, 2008. The preconference is presented in partnership with The Pacific Institute, and is intended for everyone in leadership positions as well as those moving towards leadership roles within their organizations or lives.
Participants will work to improve effective thinking skills; heighten self-confidence; increase self-motivation; attain goals that were once thought out of reach; and understand paths to career growth.
The scholarships will offset the $225 cost of registration and the balance can be used toward travel, housing, or other costs associated with the annual conference. Applications are available at http://www.ala.org/ala/lama/precon_scholarship.pdf.
Funding for this scholarship is made possible through interest income generated by generous and ongoing contributions to the LAMA Endowment Fund.
The mission of the Library Administration and Management Association is to encourage and nurture current and future library leaders, and to develop and promote outstanding leadership and management practices. LAMA is a division of the American Library Association.
