DESCRIPTION
There are two Education Committees operating at any given time -
one for each of the two upcoming AALL annual meetings.
The purpose of the Committee is to provide educational programs,
speakers, seminars and classes useful to the membership. It is
responsible for the suggestions of education programs sponsored by the
PLL/SIS, including those at the annual meeting, to the
Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect. All programming is geared to accomplish the
following:
-
Amplify or focus on substantive areas of law or library science.
-
Provide a forum for discussion of techniques, skills, and
problems in the workplace.
-
Offer opportunities to discuss new techniques and/or
developments in librarianship and information science.
-
Provide general interest programs that are not directly related
to law libraries, such as financial planning, stress management,
etc.
Each Committee shall consist of at least 3-5 members, all of whom
serve two year terms. The newest Committee shall be selected by
September 1 by the PLL/SIS Chair. As programs and faculty are
considered, the Committee shall consult with Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect as
the liaison with the PLL/SIS Executive Committee. Both Committees may
solicit program ideas from the general membership annually.
