Looking to get involved?

Librarians who are looking to get more involved in service to the library community both locally and statewide have multiple opportunities to participate.

The Massachusetts Library System is seeking Librarians who are interested in serving on its Executive Board. Board members serve a three-year term, and the group meets on the last Monday of each month. This is a great opportunity to get your voice heard statewide. If interested in learning more, please contact Board President Sal Genovese as soon as possible at sgenovese@ocln.org.

Additionally, the Western Massachusetts Library Advocates organization is also seeking Librarians or library supporters who are interested in serving on their Board of Directors. This group meets monthly, and is an excellent opportunity to work in support of issues unique to libraries in the West. For more information, please contact Toni Golinski-Foisy at agolinsk@cwmars.org.

I encourage you all to actively take part in the decision-making process that effects our libraries, and to work on behalf of the betterment of all libraries, both near and far!
