Title: Maryland Library Association

URL: https://www.mdlib.org/

Description: Archived website of the Maryland Library Association (MLA). The MLA was founded in 1923 by a group of dedicated librarians hoping to form a collective voice of representation to further the interests of libraries within the state of Maryland. The MLA was instrumental in such tasks as the development of the graduate school of library science at the University of Maryland, College Park, which began accepting students in 1965. In 1975, the original goal was modified to permit the MLA to "promote and develop library interest and development and the profession of librarianship in the state of Maryland." Today, in addition to providing numerous professional development opportunities for its members, the MLA continues to actively serve the library interests of Maryland through the monitoring of and participation in legislative activities and public policy. The MLA website includes information about its bylaws, leadership, strategic plan, archives, policies, Nettie B. Taylor Maryland Library Leadership Institute, annual conference, career resources, membership, advocacy, and newsletters. The site also hosts issues of The CRAB, the MLA's members-only newsletter, as well as a blog, which includes posts related to the MLA's leadership, conference news, legislative news, press releases, and site information.
