Dear Colleagues, The New Members Round Table (NMRT) Mentoring Committee is once again seeking mentors for their Conference Mentoring Program at the ALA Annual Conference in June! Do you remember being overwhelmed at your first ALA Conference? Do you consider yourself a 'Conference Pro' now? This is your opportunity to help a new professional learn the ropes.... The Conference Mentoring Program is a great way to network with individuals who are new to the profession. It is open to all ALA members (who have attended at least two ALA conferences) and is designed to connect a first time conference attendee with a 'seasoned professional' who can help them navigate the ALA Annual Conference. Interested in being a mentor? Please read the guidelines and complete an online application form at http://www.ala.org/ala/nmrt/comm/mentoringcommittee.htm The application deadline is May 1, 2007. If you have questions, please contact the NMRT Mentoring Committee at nmrt_mentoring at yahoo.com. Please feel free to share this invitation with your colleagues.
