    Greetings everyone!

    Welcome to the Core Library Consulting Group!

    As you know our ASCGLA Library Consulting Group has now been transferred to the Core Library Consulting Group and I am glad to continue as the Chair for the coming year.  I had the opportunity this last summer to be part of a Core Interest Groups Working Group where we discussed and developed recommendations on the ways Interest Groups can work within Core.  This work is ongoing and information is available here.

    Also, for those of you interested in the transition of ASCGLA units into other ALA divisions and activities, you can continue to be informed by the information posted here.

    Please mark on your calendar the following dates/times for a zoom session to discuss and brainstorm ways to engage through the new Core Library Consulting Interest Group.
