On behalf of the BCLA Board, I’m pleased to introduce the newest BCLA interest group: The Metrics & Impact Interest Group!
The Metrics & Impact Interest Group was formed to share knowledge, strategies and connect on industry issues metrics and impact within all types of BC libraries. No BCLA membership is required to participate, and the group will meet virtually. Watch for the announcement of their upcoming first meeting!
Find out more about this new group by reading their terms of reference, checking out their BCLA subsite, and subscribing to the Library Metrics & Impact Interest Group forum to get updates and join the conversation.
Interest groups, sections, and committees are a vital part of BCLA. They provide opportunities to build your professional network, complementing experiences in the work environment, and add to the diversity and strength of the Association.
Thank you to the Metrics & Impact Interest Group Executive for creating this new group, and to everyone who participates in BCLA interest groups, sections, and committees.
For questions about the new group, please contact the Chair, Ariana Galeano (Richmond Public Library), Vice Chair Rachel Burke (Coquitlam Public Library), or Recording Secretary Diana Marshall (Fraser Valley Regional Library).
For questions about creating a new interest group, please contact Rina Hadziev, BCLA Executive Director.
With thanks,
Tracey Therrien, BCLA President
