Title
Giving to CALA: a Way to Celebrate its 50th Anniversary
Description
CALA has reached a significant milestone, celebrating its 50th anniversary since its establishment in 1973. Over the years, CALA has provided a home for many librarians, particularly Chinese librarians, and has played a crucial role in fostering their professional growth through various training and experience opportunities.
As we commemorate this milestone, it's essential to find ways to show our appreciation for all that CALA has accomplished. The Public Relations & Fundraising Committee has developed and planned several gifts or projects to honor CALA in 2023.
These gifts include a digital Chinese-English Calendar, a grant-awarded project to document CALA presidents of the past ten years, a joint project with IJoL (International Journal of Librarianship) to publish a special issue on library leadership, and most importantly, a "Giving to CALA" campaign.
The "Giving to CALA" campaign, a joint effort with the Membership Committee, aims to encourage CALA members and the broader community to support CALA's ongoing mission and vision by joining CALA, getting involved, or contributing financially. All this can help to sustain and strengthen the organization and ensure that it continues to serve Chinese librarians and the library community at large for another 50 years and beyond.
In summary, this poster presents the various gifts and projects the Public Relations & Fundraising Committee has planned to celebrate CALA's 50th anniversary in 2023. The "Giving to CALA" campaign is a significant component of this celebration. We encourage all CALA members and supporters to participate and contribute meaningfully to the organization's continued success.
