Journal of the President

by Terri DiCenzo, DALL President
Leadership!

I am truly honored to be the President of DALL for the 2010/2011 term. DALL members are some of the brightest and most skilled Librarians in the business. The depth of knowledge and professionalism that is displayed on a daily basis from our members is amazing. Representing you is a privilege. This year the goals of your president and the executive board are to Encourage participation in DALL, Engage in professional growth, and Emphasize the positive attributes of our profession.

This year our general meetings are scheduled on a bi-monthly basis. We will have evening gatherings and regular lunch time meetings. Vender forums can be scheduled during months that we do not have general meetings. The purpose of the forums is to allow smaller venders to present products to the membership of DALL that we may not have the opportunity to see under other circumstances.

The DALL Executive board will meet monthly to guide our path and keep up with challenges that arise this term. Our Committee Chairpersons will meet as a group quarterly during this term so we can define goals and monitor progress on committee projects.

The DALL newsletter will publish on a bi-monthly schedule. Will sell advertising in the newsletter starting with the September/October issue. It is a priority and a commitment to our members to meet our publication schedule for the newsletter. Some new content is in the works for this term. The new content includes interviews with local star librarians and a column called Adventures in Job Hunting. If you would like to write for the newsletter please contact our editor Amy Chapman. We are always looking for unique perspectives and thoughtful commentary. The annual Spring Institute will be held in April of 2011. If you have a suggestion for the program or would like to present on a topic please let me know. The "National Library Week Children's Book" drive will also be held in April of 2011.

I have outlined a very active year for the DALL leadership and members, but I know that we can reach our goals and make good things happen.
