As a member of ISLMA, you have the power to help shape where our organization is headed within the next five years. A task force has been assembled to design our first Strategic Plan! This document has to reflect the member’s thoughts, concerns and hopes for what you need from your professional association. It has been said that the most important aspect of a long range plan is not the document itself, but the process of collecting the data for the document. Conference offers us the chance to hear from all of you by asking a few key questions and really listening to the answers.
An important questionnaire will be included in your conference registration packet and distributed at the membership meeting on Thursday night’s Annual Membership Meeting. We hope you give these questions some serious time and thought. There will be a spot to return these questionnaires at the registration table, or you may mail them to the ISLMA corporate office. Plan are underway to add this form to the ISLMA website so you can submit your answers electronically. ISLMA’s Strategic Plan will be released in 2008.
The goals and strategies of this organization need to reflect the changes in our profession, state, communities and school libraries. Thank you for taking the time to tell us your opinions on what ISLMA should set as priorities. We are listening!
