"All libraries are special, but some
are more special than others".

Whether you're joining us for the first time or you consider yourself one of the "regulars", you're sure to discover that your experience with SLA in the coming year will be both valuable and memorable.
Getting jobs and staying on top of things in your field are priorities for current and future information professionals, yet the classroom rarely provides the opportunities to do these things. Networking and exposure do. This year, the SLA is looking at
- staging networking events
- liaising more closely with the SLA Eastern Canada Chapter and the LIS students at the Université de Montreal
- ensuring information professionals from Special Libraries are included in the SIS lunch-hour speaker series
- arranging tours of Special Libraries that represent students' interests
- becoming more visible within the McGill University community through fundraising events
- acknowledging the SIS streams, by providing a more general focus on the information professional, rather than the librarian
