AASL Has a NEW Retirees SIG

  • 1.  AASL Has a NEW Retirees SIG

    Posted Feb 16, 2012 02:40 PM

    We’re official.  Welcome.  Please invite others to join a new AASL Special Interest Group: Retirees.

     

    If you are retired, anticipating retirement or want to advocate for retiree activities in AASL, join us.

     

    The RetireeSIG is a community for passionate school librarians to gather, connect, and continue to be actively engaged in a profession they love and value.

     

    A school librarian is a learner4life.  Maintain and improve your skills.  Participate in lively conversations.  Discuss the latest books.  Get involved in research opportunities.  The possibilities are endless and member driven.

     

    Pay it forward. Mentor or advise school librarians.  Discuss what works or what you have discovered.  You have expertise to share.  

     

    Advocate for what matters.  The school library community needs your voice.

     

    Continue to participate in what matters to you and to AASL, a win-win for everyone.

     

    See you on ALA Connect and at annual in Anaheim to celebrate this new, vibrant SIG!
