ALSC Committees: Taking Care of Business!

ALSC committees move the work of our division forward through their expertise, creativity, commitment, and hard work. We are so grateful for all our committees and working groups for all they do!

We don’t have space here to acknowledge them all but enjoy these photos of various award selection committees from LibLearnX in Baltimore this past January. After a year of reading, listening, discussing, and deliberating, these members came together in January, chose their 2024 winners, and had the opportunity to celebrate and gather for photos during the Youth Media Awards press conference.
