Choose from 4 Standing Committees, 20 Work Groups, or 7 Communities of Practice groups.
This is an ideal opportunity to be involved with your peers to create a professional development and networking opportunity, serve your profession, and play a vital role in building a strong association. There is a place for everyone to be involved at MLA!
Committees: Under the MLA structure, you may volunteer for an MLA Standing Committee or Sub-Committee to plan and build a strategic and sustainable MLA.
Work Groups: You may choose to join one of many strong Work Groups to develop a professional development and networking opportunity that meets a variety of members' needs. This year's Work Groups will produce workshops to be held throughout 2011 and awards to be presented.
Communities of Practice: This year you have an opportunity to lead a Community of Practice. The pilot program has led to the creation of several more communities that will inspire networking and resource sharing among participants. This is an ideal opportunity to facilitate conversation and generate a flow of ideas.
New opportunities to volunteer will be explored and offered to keep MLA nimble and responsive to member needs. Bring your talents to MLA and further develop your skills in leadership.
A strong MLA will advocate for libraries throughout Michigan.
