[Reading-hall-of-fame] LRA mentoring session

[Diane Lapp]

Hello,
Each year at LRA the Hall of Fame members share a 90 minute time slot during which they  meet with newer members who wish to discuss topics related to our individual areas of expertise.This is not a formal presentation, but rather a time when newer members get to ask questions and discuss possible study ideas that are related to our areas of expertise. It is a very well attended session and I have enjoyed being a table host for several years. I gained many interesting ideas and have had some lovely conversations with newer members. I think this is the general sentiment of the session.

LRA would like us to continue this at the 2021 conference. Below is a program description from the 2020 conference where the session occurred via Zoom. I am not sure whether the session  will be synchronous or asynchronous at the 2021 conference.

I am assuming that everyone from last year will again be participating. If not, please send me a private response. Also it would be terrific to include all of our newer inductees. If you are willing to participate please send me a private response today.  

Additionally if you are willing to participate you will need to create an account in the 2021 LRA website. This takes only a few minutes. The link is below.

Diane
