    Hi!

    The California Library Association's (CLA) Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Library Workers Special Interest Group (SIG) will be offering two free virtual forums in January and inviting all Library and Information Sciences students regardless of location to participate: (see flyer)

    Session 1: January 10th, Wednesday, 10-11 am PT / 12-1 pm CT / 1-2 pm ET

    Session 2: January 16th, Tuesday, 12-1 pm PT / 2-3 pm CT / 3-4 pm ET

    We were wondering if you can share this message and flyer with your LIS students or ALA Student Chapter at UMD? Students can network with library leaders and learn more about different opportunities, scholarships, and programs available to LIS students.

    Please reach out if you have any questions. 

    Thank you!
