The Formation of Core
Channel: ALA Core
Date: 05/11/2020

Prior to the birth of Core: Leadership, Infrastructure, Futures on September 1, 2020, members of the American Library Association's three former divisions, ALCTS (Association of Library Collections and Technical Services), LITA (Library Information Technology Association), and LLAMA (Library Leadership and Management Association) banded together proposing the idea of merging the three divisions into one. 

This video discusses the circumstances that led to the idea of the merger or the motivation behind it. Past presidents from LITA, LLAMA, ALCTS;  those on the working groups; membership, past/current Board members; and the Core Executive Director shares their unique experiences and perspectives on the formation of Core.
