call for mentors

        One of Mark Estes' long term goals is to be able to provide
a mentor for every new member of AALL. Over a three month
period, from June to September 1992, 123 new members joined AALL.
Based on these four months of statistics, we expect that AALL
will have about 350 new members this year: 145 from law firm
libraries; 90 students; 25 from academic libraries; 20 from
corporate libraries; 20 from county and other public libraries;
10 from court libraries; and 40 others (primarily from vendors).
Obviously, we are are going to need a lot of mentors.
        The Mentor Project brings together new AALL members with
seasoned veterans who are willing to share their experiences.
The purposes of the Project are three-fold: to provide an
informal, personal source of information for newer members; to
provide an avenue by which experienced law librarians, the
Mentors, may meet promising new members of the profession; and to
provide a network for members who are contemplating a move to
another type of law library.
