91´«Ã½

CHICAGO - The LLAMA Mentoring Committee has begun recruiting mentors and mentees for the July 2012-June 2013 year. The mentoring program pairs librarians who are currently in leadership positions with librarians who are interested in becoming leaders.

For mentors, it is a chance to pass on your experience and knowledge by working one-on-one with an enthusiastic colleague who is ready to learn and benefit from your experience. For mentees, it is a great opportunity to learn from an accomplished leader how to:

• explore your leadership potential;
• demonstrate leadership in your current position;
• acquire the skills, attitudes and relationships that you will need to move into leadership roles.

Participants must be 91´«Ã½ and LLAMA members as of the start of the program and must either attend the Mentor/Mentee orientation at 91´«Ã½ Annual or be able to participate in a virtual orientation at a time to be determined.

The deadline to apply to become a mentor or mentee is Dec. 16, 2011. To apply, go to
