interested in Sci-Tech Librarianship? The Student Relations Committee
of the Sci-Tech Division of SLA is offering two FREE one-year
memberships in SLA (includes affiliation with the Sci-Tech Division as
well as one chapter affiliation). To be eligible for one of the free
student memberships, all you have to do is come up with some creative
& relevant ways that the Sci-Tech Division should engage with
library/information science students who are looking forward to a
career in Sci-Tech librarianship. Check out what we already do at the
Sci-Tech Division website:
http://units.sla.org/division/dst/index.html.

To apply, send your creative ideas, along with your name, email, phone
number, address, and the library/information science program in which
you are enrolled to hilary_davis@ncsu.edu. Deadline: May 25th, 2008

If you are not selected for one of the two free memberships, you can
still become connected to a wealth of professional development
opportunities, colleagues, and mentors by applying for the SLA
one-year student membership ($35/year). Visit
