Join Us For An Important ALL RIG Meeting | Wednesday Nov. 19

  • 1.  Join Us For An Important ALL RIG Meeting | Wednesday Nov. 19

    Posted 21 days ago
    The RIG Conveners invite current residents and RIG members to attend a very important All RIG General Meeting on Wednesday, November 19, which will be held virtually via Zoom. In addition to hearing from a representative of each subgroup, we want to discuss the possibility of broadening this interest group's focus beyond residents to all early career librarians. We will share what prompted the idea before opening the floor to your thoughts, questions, and concerns. 
    Date: Wednesday, November 19, 2025
    Time: 9a PT / 10a MT / 11a CT / 12p ET
    Register Here: https://cuboulder.zoom.us/meeting/register/gBzt39gNTIak1bhgU89rWA 
    We plan to be more intentional about using this community space for RIG on ALA Connect. We encourage you to also use it, sharing with RIG/current residents any team updates, development opportunities, announcements, etc. 
    If you have any questions, or if you prefer to share your feedback on the future of RIG via email, please contact RIG Convener Courtney Shareef at courtney.shareef@louisville.edu.
    Sincerely,
    The RIG Leadership Team
    Courtney Shareef, Convener
    Natalia Umaña, Incoming Convener
    Beatrice Downey, Outgoing Convener
