***please excuse cross-posting***

We have collaborated for eight years as co-chair of the New Librarians
Discussion Group <https://acrlny.org/discussion-groups/new-librarians/> and
director of the ACRL/NY Mentoring Program
<https://acrlny.org/about2/mentoring-program/> of the Association of
College and Research Libraries Greater New York Metropolitan Area chapter (
ACRL/NY <http://acrlny.org/>). In this capacity, we regularly hold
workshops and events for library students, job seekers, new librarians, and
for seasoned librarians who are looking to recharge.

As most of you probably know, the theme for the April 2021 ACRL conference
is “Ascending Into an Open Future.” We are interested in convening a panel
to discuss what librarians’ career development and job seeking might look
like in such a future. How will “open” impact the way library and staff
positions are defined or refined, advertised, sought, and secured? How will
career trajectories shift as “open” becomes more prominent in higher
education?

If you have ideas about how you might contribute to this exciting panel
discussion, please complete this brief form
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc8KzICH_7HDf9oxK5xungM_y2fShgtSH2uihInwToJuIW41A/viewform>
by 3pm Eastern time on Tuesday 5/5.

We look forward to hearing from you!
