Membership ~ Listserv ~ Regional Partnership

NHSLMA is a professional organization representing school library media professionals and paraprofessionals. We are an affiliate of AASL, The American Association of School Librarians. We provide our members with a forum for the exchange of ideas and with opportunities for professional growth through publications, conferences, and staff development workshops.

NHSLMA 'S mission is to ensure that all members of the New Hampshire school community become effective users of ideas and information, and school library media programs are an integral part of the teaching/learning process in every New Hampshire school. Ten Good Reasons to Use the Library.

NHSLMA 'S logo is available in a variety of formats and in color and black and white. NH school librarians may use this logo on their web site or other publications for promoting our state organization. Click here.

NHSLMA stimulates professional growth by:

	Facilitating staff development opportunities for educators in cooperation with other state professional organizations.
	Strengthening NH's school media programs by providing a network of mutual support.
	Keeping educators informed about changing trends in the profession.
	Monitoring and working to uphold professional standards.
	Providing scholarship opportunities for continuing education.

Constitution and By Laws

The NHSLMA board reviewed our Constitution and Bylaws in the 2005-2006 year and made recommendations for updates and changes. These were posted for review, comment, and approval by membership. They were approved in the spring of 2009 by vote of the membership. Proposed version. Word PDF
