The Emerging Leaders Program

Applications Now Being Accepted for 2009
Application Information


What Is the Emerging Leaders Program?

Emerging Leaders began in 2007 as one of ALA Immediate Past President Leslie Burger’s six initiatives. The Emerging Leaders program enables newer librarians from across the country to participate in problem-solving workgroups; network with peers; gain an inside look into ALA structure, and have an opportunity to serve the profession in a leadership capacity. It puts them on the fast track to ALA and professional leadership.

Connie Paul, Executive Director, Central Jersey Regional Library Cooperative and Maureen Sullivan, organizational consultant (Annapolis, Maryland), are spearheading the project.

For more information, contact Beatrice Calvin, Program Officer, ALA Office for Human Resource Development and Recruitment.

How Are Emerging Leaders Chosen?

The selection committees seek diversity based on geography, gender, ethnicity and type of library. They pay particular attention to, and value candidates' statements as well as those of their references.

Tools for Projects

  • Project Management Software - If you are looking for software to pull together timelines, tasks, and group chat features, a great resource is a free account from BaseCamp.
  • ALA's own Online Communities is a virtual workplace open to all ALA Members. You can request a community and set it up with chat, forums, announcements, and more. Visit http://communities.ala.org, and login with your ALA website login (usually your member number) and website password. Not sure what they are or want them changed? Call ALA Member and Customer Service at 1-800-545-2433, press 5 to get MACS, and then 4 to update your profile. To bypass the learning curve involved in setting up a new community, request administrator training from Louise Gruenberg, ALA's e-learning instructional designer.
