The mission of the Library Instruction Round Table (LIRT) is to provide a forum for discussion of activities, programs, and problems of instruction in the use of libraries; to contribute to the education and training of librarians for library instruction; to promote instruction in the use of libraries as an essential library service, and to serve as a channel of communication on library instruction between the ALA divisions, ALA and ACRL committees, state clearinghouses, Project LOEX, other organizations concerned with instruction in the use of libraries, and members of the Association.

Seeking two representatives to ALA-level committees

  • 1.  Seeking two representatives to ALA-level committees

    Posted Apr 21, 2020 07:16 AM
    Hi, fellow LIRTers,

    LIRT is seeking two members to represent our round table on ALA-level committees. First, we need someone to serve as LIRT's representative to ALA's Intellectual Freedom Committee for two years, starting July 1, 2020. Also, we need someone to represent LIRT on a new Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Assembly that ALA's Office for Diversity, Literacy and Outreach Services is putting together. I'm not sure of that term length, but two years is a good bet.

    If you are interested in being LIRT's representative to either of these committees, please write directly to me (mrobiso2@nd.edu) and LIRT Vice President Jen Hunter (jenhunter@princeton.edu).

    Thank you in advance for your willingness to serve LIRT in this capacity!
    -Mark, LIRT President
