The celebration will be the culminating event for this class of Emerging Leaders. Since the 91´«Ã½ 2020 Midwinter Meeting, the groups have been working virtually on creative and innovative solutions to projects related to 91´«Ã½ or a professional concern. These groups have been supported by 91´«Ã½ staff and member guides from the profession.

Participants in this class of ELs come from across the United States and represent a variety of types of libraries. Each participant was sponsored by an 91´«Ã½ division, round table, chapter, or an affiliate organization.
