The CJCLS Mentoring Program continues to be a success, and we are now accepting mentee applications for the 2025-2026 (eight-month) mentoring program. Mentors were recruited in April, 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the deadline, (see below), participants will be paired (mentor\/mentee), and the mentoring program will run from October 15, 2025, to June 26, 2026. A \u201cKick-Off Meeting\u201d covering a review of the program will take place on Wednesday, October 15, at 1:00 PM CDT<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Requirements for Participation:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For Mentees: <\/strong>Open to all who are currently employed at a community college library as a librarian, staff, administrator, or student enrolled in or recent graduate from graduate-level Library and Information Science (MLIS) programs who are interested in working at a community college library. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Note:<\/strong> Due to limited space, this year’s CJCLS Mentoring Program will accept only as many mentees as there are available mentors. As a result, we will maintain a waitlist for additional mentees. During the application period, we will inform you if you are placed on the waitlist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To apply, please complete the 2025-2026 Mentee Form<\/a> by Sunday, September 14, at 5:00 PM CDT<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For more information, contact the CJCLS Mentoring Committee Co-Chairs: Sandy McCarthy (mccarthy@wccnet.edu<\/a>) and Kathy Ladell (ladellkn@ucmail.uc.edu<\/a>), in addition to the CJCLS Mentoring LibGuide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" (via Spencer Brayton, Waubonsee Community College) Are you new to community college libraries and looking to expand your professional knowledge and skills?
