Hi!
I’m Tinamarie Vella, and I’m the current Networking Director for NMRT. We want to create more networking opportunities around the country. With the help of our awesome regional volunteer reps, we will start to bring networking socials to various regions in the country in between ALA Conferences. This will be an opportunity to get to know more about NMRT (current/prospective members are welcome!).
Please check out the events below — we tried our best to get as many regions as possible.
If you would like to help host a networking social in your area, please email me @ tinamarie.vella[at]gmail.com — we’d love to have your support!
