  • 1.  ACRL RIG New Members

    Hello - 

    On behalf of the ACRL Residency Interest Group (RIG) we are reaching out to you to share some information regarding the group and resources available to all residents. 

    What is ACRL RIG?  

     

    ACRL RIG was one of the first interest groups created in order to support librarians and archivists in residencies and fellowships nationwide. This group is intentionally open to any residents, including those who are not members of ACRL, to join. 

     

    We encourage you to do the following:  

     

    1. Join the ACRL RIG list-serv (ALA/ACRL membership not required)

    We strongly encourage all residents to join the ACRL RIG list-serv. This is where information related to programming, conference meet-ups, calls for presenters, professional development opportunities and other information that may be relevant to residents is shared.



    Register for this month's RIG Meeting on March 22, 2023 at  2-3:30pm EST
