WPLLA Needs YOU!
Join a committee. Share your ideas.

WPLLA members are the heart and soul of the organization. Your ideas and input are encouraged and valued. Please consider playing an active role in WPLLA by joining a committee today. Since many committee activities are handled via e-mail or phone, you would not have to sacrifice valuable time travelling to meetings to be a committee member. The following committees are seeking new members: Newsletter, Grant/Scholarship, Recruitment/Membership, Archives/Historian, and Nominating. Contact WPLLA President Melanie Johnston (mljohnston@Eckertseamans.com) if you would like to join a committee.

Also, programming ideas are always welcome! Have you thought about a particular program topic that would address your library interests and concerns? Do you think other law librarians could benefit from this as well? Karen Shephard, programming chair, would love to hear from you. Please contact Karen at shephard@pitt.edu.
