Dear Readers,
I am happy to announce we have made it to the tail end of the semester. I would like to wish everyone a restful night's sleep and strength to finish up the semester strong. We have opportunities from within our chapter and our parent organization we would like to share with you all.
Join our team! Interested in collecting evidence for competencies H, D, and M? Do you enjoy collaborating with individuals with different backgrounds (MARA, MLIS, and Informatics)? Do you want to work with people across the state? Join Here.


I want to remind everyone that the US West Chapter is hosting a hybrid workshop next week, May 6th. Considering Cultural and Linguistic Diversity in AI Applications, is available online and in person and it aims to bring together anyone who is interested in culturally and linguistically diverse populations. Register here.
For anyone that was interested and unable to attend our event The Evolving Role of AI in Libraries with Heather Sardis check out the recording of the event on our Youtube page.
