FURTHER DETAILS HERE >> New MentorMatch Session Begin in June The OLA MentorMatch program strives to link working library staff with students, new graduates and other library staff interested in a career in libraries and related fields. Mentoring involves one person providing support and guidance to another, helping them manage their own learning and development. Mentoring is a relationship rather than a management activity, providing a safe and non-judgemental environment in which to learn. The mentoring relationship has rewards for both partners. Find out more about MentorMatch here. We are now accepting applications for the six-month MentorMatch session commencing in June 2019. We are seeking experienced members interested in being mentors as well as applications from those who would like to be mentored (Mentees). The deadline for applications is May 17.
