ALISE is preparing for its Centennial Celebration in 2015. We are excited about the upcoming festivities. Now is your chance to learn more and get involved.
Centennial Activities
Creating a timeline Hosted by Viewshare, the timeline will provide a comprehensive overview of significant moments in LIS education. The timeline will include general information about LIS education as well as specific information about colleagues and ALISE member institutions.
Creating a digital interview archive Centennial Committee members are interviewing colleagues about their roles in LIS education and ALISE. Subjects are being interviewed by members of the Centennial Committee as well as ALISE members. Called “Centennial Conversations,” these short interviews are intended to capture as many perspectives as possible.
Growing the ALISE Member-Driven Initiatives The Centennial Fund for ALISE is striving to raise $100,000 to support three member-driven initiatives.
