Reminder to be a buddy for ALAMW! Meet new people a few times and gain service experience! Are you a new ALA Conference attendee and would like tips on how to get the most out of your conference experience? Are you an experienced ALA Conference attendee and willing to share your experience and advice? The LLAMA Buddy Program is here to pair Learning Buddies with Experienced Buddies in order to get the most out of your conference experience and learn about LLAMA in the process.
Your commitment is to meet at least once with your Buddy at the ALA conference. The reward for meeting a new colleague, helping someone navigate the ALA exhibit hall or find the best sessions is priceless.

If you are an Experienced Buddy, fill out the form: tinyurl.com/ALAMW18ExperiencedBuddy
We will try to match Buddies with common interests and availability. The matching will begin after January 15, 2017. Please sign up today!!
If you have any questions, please contact a member of the LLAMA New Professional Buddy Program Committee: npsbuddy [at] gmail.com. We look forward to your participation in the Buddy Program!
