Starting a WLA Sustainability Interest Group?

From the Dec 27, 2024 WLA Newsletter

WLA Member Dawn Tevis is looking for other members interested in working with her to create a WLA Special Interest Group on the topic of Sustainability. If this is you, please email Dawn at dtevis@lacrossecounty.org by Monday, January 6. Dawn writes: "Libraries are in a unique position to help create vibrant, resilient communities in the face of environmental concerns, and the ALA has identified Sustainability as a core professional value—urging us to embody practices that are environmentally sound, economically feasible, and socially equitable. I would love to join forces to build momentum toward deeper sustainable thinking and mutual support in policies, programs, educational opportunities, partnerships, collections, operations, and more. Let me know if you’d like to be a part, and we’ll see if I can get the required minimum for an SIG."  Dawn Tevis, Youth Services Coordinator, La Crosse County Library

Young Adult-Centric Special Interest Group, Anyone?

Are you interested in young adult services?  Want to connect with other motivated, like-minded folks to provide resources, support, and general good cheer?

YSS would LOVE to start a young adult-centric special interest group (SIG)...but we need your help!  We're looking for interested parties ready to get this SIG up and running.  If you--or someone you know--is willing to help create a new, super rad special interest group all about teens and those who love and work with them, email us at yssection@gmail.com!
