New Members Round Table

The New Members Round Table provides a place for South Carolina Library Association's newer members to develop professionally, establish relationships with other library staff from across the state, and learn about opportunities for service within the association. Membership in the NMRT is available to SCLA members who have worked less than five years in South Carolina.

What is our NMRT about?

We can...

learn from each other
learn from more experienced librarians
find our own place to plug into SCLA
grow as professionals and as leaders within our libraries and communities, as well as in our state and national associations
