Member Services UpdatesCommittee Roster | Member Services Updates The mission of the Member Services Committee is to retain WLA members, ensure value is provided to new and existing members, and to develop the benefits of WLA membership to the library community. 2023The new WLA Peer-to-Peer Book Challenge Support Group will offer Zoom gatherings for WLA members to share their experiences with book challenges, library challenges, and other issues encountered that relate to intellectual freedom. The WLA Member Services Committee and Intellectual Freedom Section saw a need for these meetings, and the Member Services Committee will minimally facilitate them. The meetings are a member benefit, so there is no cost to attend. Upcoming meetings will be held at the following dates and times:
This group is not professionally facilitated or meant to replace professional resources. It is intended for peer-to-peer support only. This group will not be about legislative or activist work. The Member Services Committee is piloting this group for a limited time to gauge need and interest. Registration to attend meetings is required. You must be logged into your WLA account to register. Attendees will receive Zoom access information the day before each meeting they sign up to attend. Attendees will be asked to read and agree to the WLA Code of Conduct as well as Support Group Ground Rules during registration. Please contact the WLA Office at [email protected] or (206) 823-1138 if you have any questions.
2021The Member Services Committee is in the process of developing new member benefits, specifically while looking for ways to make membership and participation in WLA more accessible and useful to members and potential members from marginalized communities.
