AALL Vision

As the national professional organization for all law librarians and those who support the field of law librarianship, the American Association of Law Libraries (AALL) serves as the voice of permanent public access to legal information and the leaders of the profession. AALL’s envisioned future is to be an essential part of the professional life of every member. In the future:

Members will be recognized as valued leaders in the legal community. AALL will provide leadership training and opportunities to position our members to become essential to the mission of their organizations.

Members will have the skills needed to meet the ever changing needs of our environment. AALL will provide the educational opportunities to position our members to navigate those changes.

Members will work to protect continuous and permanent access to legal information, which is at the heart of law librarianship. AALL will provide the national voice, the reputation, and the stature to be a strong advocate for law librarians and their constituencies.

As an activist library organization, our agenda for the future is ambitious, encompassing a broad scope of activities. AALL, through our initiatives in leadership, education, and advocacy, will empower our members to meet the professional challenges that lie ahead.
