Would you like to develop your library instruction skills, methods, and resources more fully? Expand your network and build a relationship with a new colleague? If you answered “yes” to one or both of these questions then the ACRL Instruction Section Mentoring Program is for you.
The purpose of the ACRL IS Mentoring Program is to contribute to the professional development of academic librarians who teach information literacy through the creation of mentor/mentee pairs within the Instruction Section. Conference attendance is not required & much of the mentoring takes place through online communication! Visit our webpage for more information on the Mentoring Program. In order to create mentor/mentee pairs by the beginning of the Fall Semester, we ask that you please fill out our online application by Friday, September 15. (Membership in ACRL and the Instruction Section is required for applying.)
Please consider joining this wonderful forum for discussion, networking, and the exchange of ideas about instruction and information literacy. If you have questions about the ACRL IS Mentoring Program, please contact the Committee Chair, Krystal Wyatt-Baxter, at krystal@austin.utexas.edu.
