volunteers.  (As a new volunteer, you can be your own first customer!)  See 
below for the committee charge.

If you’d like to help with this endeavor, please contact me or Tracie Krumbine

Subject: [lib.laaac] Request for volunteers for new Member Support Committee

Hi all, we are seeking 3-4 volunteers to join the new Member Support Committee. 
I have copied the committee charge below. Please contact me if you are 
interested. Thank you, Tracie


The Member Support Subcommittee supports the LAA through effective onboarding 
and ongoing member engagement. This work is needed to increase knowledge within 
the LAA to more efficiently support its projects and mission to increase 
belonging for people with disabilities in libraries. It also ensures equal 
representation of the consortia throughout the work. The Member Support 
Subcommittee is meant to:

·         create and maintain an onboarding process for LAA members, including 
knowledge of accessibility and the LAA;

·         maintain membership status for each person and track who is on what 
committee, determining if a consortium is overrepresented or underrepresented 
in any area; and

·         identify projects or needs from member consortia and institutions 
that are of interest to LAA.

The group focuses on the internal growth of LAA members’ knowledge and skills 
in accessibility and disability support action. Each member can then more 
readily support LAA activities and bring knowledge back to their institutions 
and consortia.
