The Rutgers LISSA (Library and Information Science Student Association) is sponsoring a Career Day for students, Friday, March 6. This is an opportunity for SLA members to network with Rutgers students and recent grads.
The Career Day will start at 9:30 a.m. and will be held in the Pane Room of the Alexander Library on Rutgers' College Avenue campus in New Brunswick.
Leslie Burger, director of the Princeton Public Library and past ALA President, will deliver a keynote address. A resume workshop which will include one-on-one feedback from librarian volunteers. There will also be networking time after the speakers and workshop.
This is not just an opportunity for last-semester students. All students and recent alumni are welcomed and encouraged to attend. This is a fantastic opportunity to soak up some wisdom and to network with
professionals in the field and your own classmates.
To sign up, please email Mary Fran Daley a brief description of which field(s) you are interested in (youth, schools, tech services, management, archives, acquisitions, corporate, academic, public reference, etc.). Please attach your most recent resume in MS Word to this email. So that we
have the right balance of volunteers for the resume reviews, please send this email by Wednesday,
Feb. 18. LISSA will send participants a confirmation after Feb. 23.
