Upcoming Events - Toronto Association of Law Libraries

From our new fearless leader:

Hi everyone! With fall rapidly approaching, the Executive is ready to launch our programming for 2005-06. Please keep the following dates open:

Monday, September 26 - Our first luncheon of the season will feature guest speaker Rebecca Jones. She will be speaking on the competencies of librarians, and the new demands placed upon us as the information universe changes. As the Director of the Professional Learning Centre at the University of Toronto, Rebecca can offer insights into the training of new librarians as well as the professional development opportunities available to those of us already in the workforce. Arts and Letters Club, 12:00 - 2:00. Non-members welcome.

October - US legal research with Robin Penslar. Date and details to be finalized, but hold Oct. 17 and 27th.

Thursday, November 3 - "Influence without authority" with Ulla de Stricker. Get your priorities on the agenda of peers and superiors! Arts and Letters Club, 12:00 - 2:00. Non-members welcome.

Thursday, December 1 - TALL Season Social. Join us for our annual celebration at the Albany Club. Details are forthcoming.

If you're interested in serving on a committee, please contact the committee chair or a member of the Executive. Special Interest Groups are also now available to members - start yours by sending Jennifer Lee a description of the group, with the signatures of five members supporting its creation.

Let the wild rumpus begin!
