Amigos Provides Association Management Services

Since its debut, Amigos Association Management Services has begun handling many of the infrastructure needs for a number of library groups.

Through this unit, Amigos has the ability to affordably and professionally oversee all aspects of an organization’s operation, whether it’s with finances, membership list maintenance, tradeshow participation, or meeting facilitation. Amigos staff have the experience and expertise not only to meet an association’s general management needs in these areas, but also to introduce "best practices" to those groups who may lack the necessary resources to devote to these areas or who are new to the non-profit environment.

A member of the Association of Management Companies (AMC) Institute, Amigos Association Management Services can provide professional staff, administrative support, and infrastructure to help a group operate more efficiently and effectively, allowing group members to focus on the work the group was organized to do. Specific services offered include financial, membership, tradeshow, and meeting management. Amigos also has the ability to serve as the physical headquarters of an organization, offering phone, fax, copying, and document storage options.

A number of associations currently trust Amigos with their management needs, including the Missouri Library Association, The Oberlin Group, St. Louis Regional Library Network, and the Western Council of State Libraries. For more information on the services Amigos can provide, visit the Association Management Services page on the Amigos website. If your association is looking for management assistance in any area, contact Keith Gaertner, gaertner@amigos.org or 800-843-8482, ext. 2894.
