LLMA Testimonial

For those of you who are reading this blog to decide if you want to apply for the 2009 LLMA Institute, I’m thrilled to say my participation as a candidate in the 2007 Library Leadership Institute was a fantastic experience! Everyone I met at the institute, from the consultants to the LLMA committee to my fellow candidates to the hosting librarians, shared a diverse and colorful repertoire of stories and experiences. It was truly a diverse group in many ways: gender, age, experience, race, aspirations and type of library. At the end of the institute, I left there feeling energized and enthused. Not only did I become friends with some of the other candidates, but I am absolutely convinced that the LLMA Institute was instrumental in helping me transition from a schedule of 3 part time jobs at 3 different libraries at 2 different institutes to a full time permanent position as the Science Librarian at Holy Cross College—a position I was offered and accepted six months after LLMA!
