Ahead to 2010 Personal Member Dues Increase Phase-In
In the spring of 2006, 91传媒 personal members endorsed a dues increase to be phased in over the next three years, starting in September 2006. Members agreed that a dues increase was necessary to support the goals of the Ahead to 2010 Plan. With this increase, and your continued participation as a member, 91传媒 will be able to enhance our efforts on behalf of libraries and the profession. 91传媒 always offers special reduced dues to students, support staff, retirees, international librarians, trustees, the unemployed, and those making less than $25,000 per year at their jobs.
