Southeastern Michigan League of Libraries
(Re)Join Us!
The SEMLOL board is inviting libraries to engage with SEMLOL as either full or liaison members. While our full members consist of academic libraries in the southeastern Michigan area, we acknowledge and value the input and perspective of the varied libraries that make up our liaison membership.
Together, we will work to connect members of our profession by offering low/no cost professional development and networking opportunities, with your input and participation. There has never been and will continue to not be any fees required from our members. The only commitment that we ask is that a good faith effort is made to send at least one staff member (empowered to cast their organization's votes) to the spring meeting each year.
To learn more about our organization, please review our newly revised organizational guidelines. If you would like to become involved, or continue your institution's involvement with SEMLOL, please complete our membership form.
New Organizational Governance Guidelines
Revised organizational governance guidelines were introduced in the spring of 2022 for a period of feedback and suggestions. We are glad to announce that these guidelines have now been adopted by the SEMLOL board. The revised guidelines are available to view on our website, and at the link below.
