Several Amigos staff attended this year's ALA conference in San Diego, California. Below, two of them share their notable conference activities, takeaways, and insights.
On Wednesday, May 22nd, the Amigos Association Management Department (AMS) debuted its Library Association Leaders Learn & Share series, with the first session, “The Future is Now: Association Succession Planning,” moderated by Missouri Library Association Past President Otter Bowman. Nine association leaders representing five organizations attended the event. They discussed various topics such as growing future association leaders, passing along institutional knowledge, and dealing with burnout at the association board level.
One of the Goals and Strategies in the Amigos Strategic Plan to 2025 is to focus on Libraries and Library Staff by supporting and promoting member libraries and the growth and development of library staff.
