The Intellectual Freedom Round Table (IFRT) provides a forum for the discussion of activities, programs, and problems in intellectual freedom of libraries and librarians.

The IFRT Members Community group is the central hub for discussion, library and events. It is visible to all ALA members but only IFRT members can participate in the conversation.

    As the NMRT Liaison for IFRT, I have been asked to share this message:

    Dear Colleagues,

    Have you been a librarian for 5 years or less?

    Do you sometimes feel that you have professional questions to ask and no one to direct them to?

    Through the New Members Round Table's Mentoring Committee, help has arrived! Here's your chance to meet an experienced librarian who can offer you valuable professional guidance.

    The NMRT Mentoring Committee will pair up "newbie librarians" with "seasoned vets" as part of our Career Mentoring program. The program will last from February 2012 to July 2012. Conference attendance is not required. Membership in ALA is required, and NMRT membership is encouraged.

    Applications are due January 27,2012 with the goal of notifying the matching pairs by the middle of February.

    Sincerely,

    The New Member Round Table Mentoring Committee
