The mission of the Library Research Round Table (LRRT) is to contribute toward the extension and improvement of library research; to provide public program opportunities for describing and evaluating library research projects and for disseminating their findings; to inform and educate ALA members concerning research techniques and their usefulness in obtaining information with which to reach administrative decisions and solve problems; and expand the theoretical base of the field. LRRT also, serves as a forum for discussion and action on issues related to the literature and information needs for the field of library and information science.

    This first webinar entitled, "What is the Elder Justice Task Force?" will discuss who we are and what we do. You can learn more about how this emerging webinar series fits into our larger work and sign up to get involved on our website: https://www.ala.org/srrt/ejtf.
    We hope you will attend (and share this invite with others) if you are interested in learning more about how we can apply the belief in social justice to serve older adults in our libraries, communities, and professional organization(s).
