“The tenth Northern Exposure to Leadership Institute (NELI) will be held in Emerald Lake, British Columbia, from February 26 – March 3, 2009.
The Institute’s mission is to assist professional librarians to develop, strengthen, and exercise their leadership skills so that they may be better equipped to formulate, articulate, and achieve the future changes required by libraries into the 21st century.”
As a past NELI participant, I know first-had what a wonderful experiential learning experience NELI provides for newish Canadian librarians (2-7 years of professional experience). If you know an early career Canadian librarian who is enthusiastic, passionate, and knowledgeable about librarianship, please consider nominating him/her for NELI 10. I credit NELI for keeping my enthusiasm for librarianship alive and well, despite my remote location and minimal professional colleagues in the Yukon (so few people in the Yukon, it is no surprise that there aren’t many librarians here).
