Member Communities
¾«¶«´«Ã½
In addition the array of administrative and programmatic committees reporting to the ¾«¶«´«Ã½Council, the committees in the divisions of the ¾«¶«´«Ã½ and in its round tables, the ¾«¶«´«Ã½ also offers its members options for meeting with others interested in or working on particular aspects of librarianship.
- Assemblies gather individuals or representative from other ¾«¶«´«Ã½units and subunits to share information or be a resource to the ¾«¶«´«Ã½Council Committee working in that area.
- Divisions of the ¾«¶«´«Ã½ offer both discussion groups, which are informal groups that allow discussion of topics of common interest, and interest groups, which are sub-bodies established to facilitate the exchange of ideas and experiences. The latter may sponsor formal conference programs, institutes, and seminars, or prepare publications. Please review the sub-sites for the division of interest to identify these groups.
- Membership Initiative Groups are short-term structures to enable a group of ¾«¶«´«Ã½members sharing a common concern or interest about librarianship which falls outside the delegated responsibility of a single division, roundtable, or unit, to address the concern or interest.
- is a centralized online space where official ¾«¶«´«Ã½groups and member communities of all types can work together. The work of discussion groups, interest groups and membership interest groups may be found in ¾«¶«´«Ã½Connect.
