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.

Forward Together Round Tables Discussion Material

  • 1.  Forward Together Round Tables Discussion Material

    Posted Oct 27, 2020 04:17 PM
    Hello Library Instruction Round Table (LIRT) members, the Forward Together chat transcript, meeting summary, and original SCOE recommendation on Round Tables (Session 4) is now available on the Forward Together microsite at https://forwardtogether.ala.org/index.php/reports/. Many things were discussed concerning the future of round tables within ALA, including the recommendation to implement a requirement for each round table to maintain membership to at least equal 1% of ALA's membership in order to continue to exist.

    Thank you!
