Abstract

The American Library Association (ALA) Emerging Leaders (EL) program enables newer library workers from across the country to participate in problem-solving work groups, network with peers, gain an inside look into ALA structure, and have an opportunity to serve the profession in a leadership capacity. As a part of the program, participants work in groups on a research project and display the result of their work during the ALA Annual Conference.
