The ALA New Members Round Table (NMRT) Mentoring Committee is pleased to
announce that they are accepting applications for their Conference
Mentoring Program for the ALA Annual Conference in June!

The Conference Mentoring Program is designed to connect first time
conference attendees with a 'Seasoned Professional' who can help them in
navigating the ALA Annual Conference.

If you are on your way to becoming a librarian, or are new to the
field, this program is for you!  You will have the company of an
experienced colleague at the conference and possibly beyond.

If you are an experienced librarian, what better way to give back to
the profession, build leadership skills, and reminisce on those early
days than to be a mentor - plus it looks great on a resume or a tenure
dossier!

Interested?  For more information please visit the NMRT Mentoring
Committee page of the NMRT web site at
http://www.ala.org/Template.cfm?Section=comm&Template=/ContentManagement/ContentDisplay.cfm&ContentID=59855
and apply online at http://www.ala.org/ala/nmrt/comm/mentoringapp.htm.

The Conference Mentoring Program is open to all ALA members and the
application deadline is May 14th, 2004.  Everyone is encouraged to apply
early.
