This year’s ULS Social at Annual will be held on Saturday, June 25th, from 5:30-7:30 at Teaism – Penn Quarter (400 8th Street NW, Washington, DC), in the lower level. This will be similar to past in-person socials with food and non-alcoholic drinks provided. It’s an informal, come-and-go-gathering.
The University Library Section (ULS) Membership Committee will be providing “On-the-Fly” Mentoring services on site during ALA Annual 2022. Mentees will have the opportunity to meet with a mentor for a 20-minute session, on a drop-in basis. We need experienced librarians to help those new to the profession or looking for career advice.

Once again ULS is proud to sponsor an emerging leader. This year the section is sponsoring, Caterina Reed, in partnership with the Distance and Online Learning Section (DOLS). The Emerging Leaders program is a leadership development program for no more than 50 newer library workers per year that provides participants with the opportunity to work with a team to complete a 6-month project proposed by an ALA unit. Each team will present the results of their project at the ALA Annual Conference.
