SRRT (Social Responsibilities Round Table)

 View Only
last person joined: 2 days ago 

The Social Responsibilities Round Table works to make ALA more democratic and to establish progressive priorities not only for the Association, but also for the entire profession. Concern for human and economic rights was an important element in the founding of SRRT and remains an urgent concern today. SRRT believes that libraries and librarians must recognize and help solve social problems and inequities in order to carry out their mandate to work for the common good and bolster democracy.

Banned Books from the Big Chair - volunteers needed

  • 1.  Banned Books from the Big Chair - volunteers needed

    Posted 5 hours ago

    Hi, everyone.

     

    We're looking forward to seeing you and ALA Annual Conference 2026. We're also excited to see the return of Banned Books From the Big Chair for ALA Annual Conference! 

     

    We need your help to make it happen! The amazing team from Sage Publishing will be running the booth and recording the videos. We need volunteers to help attendees find the perfect banned book or sign for their photos and videos, collect release forms, and help move people through the booth.

     

    You can find the volunteer form here: Banned Books from the Big Chair Volunteer Sign-up (ALAAC 2026)

     

    This is a great opportunity to network, talk up your roundtable or projects, and meet other attendees. We expect several authors will also pop in, so you might have a chance to talk to them as well!

     

    More volunteers means that more people will have a chance to participate. Please share this opportunity with your colleagues. Thank you for signing up!
