Mentoring Programs

jmc06s — Mon, 25 May 2009 10:46:03 CDT

The Georgia Library Association does not have a formal mentoring program. If you're interested in participating in a mentoring program, please check out the Southeastern Library Association's program. This program pairs you with an experienced librarian located in one of the Southeastern states. Other mentoring programs include:

American Library Association
Offers two separate programs -- conference mentoring (for first-time attendees of an ALA conference) and career mentoring.

Special Libraries Association Career Coaching and Mentoring Resources
No organization-wide mentor program, but various chapters and divisions offer mentoring programs. See the bottom of the Career Coaching site for a list of the available mentor programs. One program that may be of interest to Georgia LIS students is the South Carolina chapter of the Special Libraries Association telementoring program. This is available to people who live in South Carolina and all students enrolled at the University of South Carolina's School of Library and Information Science (even if you attend USC but live in Georgia).

Library Shelving

Phydeaux — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 05:47:52 CDT

I would like to purchase (or swap for) some used shelving. I need single face units, 84" high, with 7" deep shelves. I have a number of double face units with various base sizes that are 90" high that I would swap, sell, whatever. I also have a number of deeper shelves (8", 10". 12") and some shelves that can have vertical dividers attached.
I have a small room with a low ceiling and several thousand books I'm trying to sort/store.
Thanks in advance for any help.
My email address is hbyeomans@accessatc.net and phone number is 912-427-2384.
