Share your thoughts!

ALLA (WA Division) and ALLA Ltd. are continually working on developing the best services for our members. As part of this, we are reaching out to WA members to let us know what you want to see from your Association.

Please take some time to let us know what you think, even if it is just via an email. Have an idea for a CPD event? Let us know. Find something interesting that you would like to be shared on the ALLA WA Blog? Want to write a post? Send it through to allawablog@gmail.com and we’ll share it.

If you have ideas to share and like to see your name in print, the Australian Law Librarian journal also recently put out a call for contributions. More information is on the journal's website.

Note: current ALLA(WA) members have been emailed information about providing feedback via a SWOT analysis exercise (due 16th October 2015).

If you have renewed your membership through 2016 but did NOT receive that email, please check that your email address is correct by logging in to your profile on the ALLA website. If you cannot log in because you registered with an old email address that you can no longer access, contact the ALLA membership coordinator.
