only public libraries, but a sizable portion of our membership is comprised of special libraries which include law, medical, and museum libraries, just to name a few. You can see the full list of special libraries in our region

to make their voices heard. Our <a href="https://mms.neo-rls.org/ct.php?lid=196106239&mm=73462869809">
Special Libraries Advisory Group</a> provides valuable feedback and suggestions for continuing education opportunities and services specific to special, academic, and school libraries. We also have a dedicated special library seat on our Board of Trustees,
which will be open for nominations starting April 1<sup>st</sup>! If you are interested in either of these opportunities, please reach out to me at
