JP Pendleton elected LSSIRT Member-at-Large
J.P. Pendleton was elected Member-at-Large for ALA’s Library Support Staff Interests Round Table (LSSIRT). JP has served as the Alabama Library Association Paraprofessional Round Table Moderator since 2007 and is excited about the opportunities with this new position with LSSIRT. When asked about it, JP says, “In the last few years, support staff issues have been increasingly at the forefront in many libraries. We as support staff and support staff advocates must continue find ways to continue this trend. As a group, we must continue to support efforts to further training, advancements, and salary improvements, while still maintaining the focus on customer service, staff work environment, and technology advancement needs.” JP will hold this position for three years.
