Music Library Association

Education Committee



Purpose:
To devise and coordinate activities related to professional and continuing education for music librarianship. Such activities may include: planning and coordinating pre- or post-conference workshops, which generally deal with topics in greater depth or with a stronger emphasis on practicality than in the general sessions of the annual meetings; presenting workshops on the basic precepts of music librarianship through the sponsorship of library schools, MLA chapters, or regional library associations and councils; developing instructional materials for such workshops and making them available as requested outside the context of the workshop; functioning as a clearinghouse for information regarding courses and curricula in music librarianship; publicizing MLA continuing education activities of the organization; and acting as a liaison with various state continuing education committees.
