Chinese American Librarians Association


CALA is another association of librarians that is new to me.
The objectives of the Association shall be:
  1. To enhance communication among Chinese American librarians as well as between Chinese American librarians and other librarians;
  2. To serve as a forum for discussion of mutual problems and professional concerns among Chinese American librarians;
  3. To promote Sino-American librarianship and library services;
  4. and To provide a vehicle whereby Chinese American librarians may cooperate with other Associations and organizations having similar or allied interests.
