The LLAMA\/NMRT New Leaders Discussion Group is an exciting new joint venture between LLAMA and NMRT. This newly created discussion group is designed to provide opportunities for discussion and networking among new librarians, new members of LLAMA and\/or NMRT, librarians who are making career shifts, experienced leaders, and anyone interested in developing leadership skills.<\/p>\n
We are excited to have lined up three presentations (eight minutes each) for the first part of the program:

The presenters will be facilitators for some of the discussions.<\/p>\n The New Leaders Discussion Group is intended to be informal in nature, and attendees are encouraged to share their thoughts and experience, offer advice, and network during the discussion phase of the program.<\/p>\n Job hunting?
