[CASL-L] Mentoring Matters relaunched

[Barbara Johnson]

Mentoring Matters!

Are you a new librarian in need of support and advice?

Are you a librarian who switched to a new grade level?

Are you a seasoned librarian willing to share your expertise?

*Introduction*

A Mentoring relationship provides emotional and intellectual growth for
both parties. It is an evolving process in which both Mentor and Mentee
gain insight and knowledge in their professional practices. It is an
experience through which Mentors provide guidance, expertise and
friendship, and Mentees share their knowledge and enthusiasm for learning.

CASL's guidelines for this program are very flexible. We will match Mentor
and Mentee, and provide the Mentor with contact information. This is a
one-year commitment which depends on courtesy, confidentiality, and mutual
respect. Each pair will develop their own individual goals.

All mentors and mentees will be invited to join a private Facebook group
and participate in Meet Up opportunities both virtual and in person.



*For one year, Mentors will agree to:*

   -

   Meet in person, by phone, or by email on a regular basis.
   -

   Encourage the Mentee to advance and excel in his/her career goals.
   -

   Teach, listen, and advise.
   -

   Develop a mutually trusting and caring relationship with the Mentee.

*For one year, Mentees will agree to:*

   -

   Commit to the mentoring relationship.
   -

   Meet in person, by phone, or by email on a regular basis.
   -

   Set goals and work with his/her Mentor to achieve those goals.
   -

   Learn, listen, and ask for advice.

This program is intended to facilitate what we do naturally - offer
encouragement, ask questions, nurture those around us.

*Do you have a new library media specialist in your district?  If so,
please tell them about Mentoring Matters.*
