AALL recently launched a new and improved interactive job board, the AALL Career Center. Designed specifically for law libraries and legal information professionals, the AALL Career Center offers members and the profession at large a highly-targeted resource for online recruitment.
The AALL 2009 Biennial Salary Survey and Organizational Characteristics will be available to AALL members in October.
This new edition is the only source for up-to-date information about salaries for law librarians and other law library employees who work in academic libraries; private firms and corporate libraries; and state, court, and county law libraries. The survey was carried out this summer in complete confidentiality by Association Research, Inc., a professional research firm in Rockville, Maryland, which works exclusively with nonprofit organizations.
Printed copies of the survey will be available for purchase and shipment in October, priced at $110 for AALL members and $175 for nonmembers (contact orders@aall.org). An online version of the survey results will be available to AALL members for free on the Members Only Section of AALLNET.
As part of the week’s events, AALL and the other co-sponsoring associations are putting together a free webinar on “From Boomers to Millennials: Intergenerational Issues in the Legal Workplace,” which will be held on Oct. 6, 2:00 p.m. Eastern time. The landscape of the workplace is changing, and the legal profession is no exception. Indeed, relationships between employees of different generations are sometimes more pronounced in the often tradition-bound legal workplace. Learn how to address the various challenges firms are facing with employees with differing priorities, attitudes and skills. Join Phyllis Weiss Haserot, President and Founder of Practice Development Counsel, and a panel of experts representing ILTA, ALA, ABA LPM, AALL, LMA and IPMA in this FREE interactive Webinar and come away with a clear understanding of the issues and their solutions. Sarah Mauldin, Law Librarian at Chamberlain, Hrdlicka, White, Williams & Martin, will be the AALL panelist. For more information and to register online, visit www.plmw.org.
