By Ann Symons\u00a0<\/em>(reposed from e-mail list by request)<\/p>\n

Several members and board members have commented on the lists \u00a0about having an Emerging Leader project. \u00a0 All the information that went back and forth had me wondering “What is the real story on the projects” so I asked Beatrice Calvin, ALA staff member who is in charge of EL.<\/span><\/p>\n

From the websites below I found out that GLBTRT is involved in recommending our sponsor at a much earlier date than I thought and that the projects get done at a much later date.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Below are three websites. \u00a0The first includes all of the dates in this year’s EL cycle. \u00a0The second two are about the EL Project.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTION ABOUT THE PROJECT AND WHO DOES WHAT AND WHEN, PLEASE E-MAIL ME after you have read the information from the ALA website.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In this inaugural year of EL sponsorship, the board [in Executive Session] will be the “unit selection committee” \u00a0 Any board member who has served as a reference for an applicant will not be on the selection committee.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Here are the important dates:<\/div>\n

EMERGING LEADERS PROJECTS: \u00a0Any member can propose and fill out \u00a0the project proposal form for an Emerging Leader Project. \u00a0There are guidelines and the form. .<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
The project proposal must be submitted by the unit but that does not necessarily mean that the board will be working up proposals and submitting them. \u00a0 The board is not going to take every idea which shows up on the list and turn it into a project proposal.<\/div>\n
