Director's Forum
LASSA is hosting this term's Director's Forum, where you can get the inside scoop to "all that other stuff" going on at SLAIS, straight from our leader Director Edie Rasmussen. This is a great opportunity for new students and continuing students hear about what SLAIS is working on in terms of faculty, curriculum, facilities -- you name it. Edie will begin by giving us an update on SLAIS goings-on and then will open the floor to questions.
If you can't attend, but have burning questions please email them to Jenny Borland (artismything@yahoo.com) and we will ask for you.
The Director's Forum -- Q&A With Edie
Tuesday, February 24th, 11:20am

Bring your questions!
We hope to see you there -- especially first year students (HINT HINT).

Talk with Ellen Humphrey, CPL
LASSA cordially invites you to a discussion with Ellen Humphrey, Assistant Director of the Calgary Public Library
Date: Thursday, October 23
Time: 12:00 - 1:00 pm
Place: IKBLC 461
Lunch will be provided by the Calgary Public Library!
Beginning Librarianship, Beginning Leadership
Findings of the 8Rs Study, The Future of Human Resources in Canadian Libraries [2005], highlight some important disconnects between the aspirations of new librarians, the expectations of library administrators and contemporary libraries needs for human capital. Like it or not, leadership is a key element of librarianship, starting from day one. You are invited to join a discussion of concepts like power and influence, management and leadership, teamwork and leadership, and to learn about leadership roles at the Calgary Public Library.
