Retired from work but don’t want to lose touch? Joining ALIA Retirees is a great way to keep in touch and at the same time continue to contribute to the library and information profession.
Our theme is Staying connected.
Staying connected enables us to keep in touch
with colleagues and with libraries we have worked in and to renew
connections with former friends. To facilitate this we host
occasional social events in various locations and at ALIA
conferences. There is an e-list, aliaRETIREES,
and we have created two blogs for members to use and participate.
A committee meets monthly, by teleconference.
Currently we have seven members. We would like to have
representatives from all the states as members of the committee,
but rarely do. If you would like to discuss joining us please
contact any of us through the Office Bearers link on the panel at
the right.
Meet your
committee
We look forward to "staying connected"
with retired colleagues, meeting new friends and continuing to
contribute to the vitality of our Association and the future of
our profession.
