The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) is looking to work with libraries across the country to host information and fill-in-the-form sessions.
There are three membership categories; personal, institutional and corporate. In any category, you'll gain access to an extensive network of like-minded professionals, providing valuable opportunities to connect, share knowledge, and collaborate.
You will also be supporting ALIA’s advocacy work to promote the essential role libraries play in society. Together we work to advance library and information services for a thriving democracy.
