NYCSLA Mentor Program
Join NYCSLA’s new mentor program today
“I didn’t learn that in library school!”
It’s what new librarians say when asked to perform certain tasks once in a school. It’s also what mentors say when they listen to the wealth of knowledge from new librarians.
Mentoring is a two-way street. Guidance, advice, experience, support and encouragement are given. New strategies, insights, understandings, satisfaction and relationships are gained.
So what are you waiting for? Sign up to have a mentor or be a mentor in NYCSLA’s new mentor program! Help us develop another support system for school librarians.
If you’d like to participate but aren’t a NYCSLA member, join today! Take advantage of the reduced rate for first year librarians.
