- SLA: A Time for New Initiatives-- CI Division Formed, Fundraising Goal Set, Certification Coming DiMattia, Susan Blumenstein, Lynn Sciences Public Agencies Information Services Exhibits Certification Special Libraries Professional Development Librarians Several initiatives were announced at the Special Libraries Association (d.b.a. SLA) conference, June 4-9, at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel in Nashville. A petition drive resulted in formation of a Competitive Intelligence (CI) Division from the former CI Section of the Leadership and Management Division. The board encouraged the member-driven Division Cabinet to explore creation of two new divisions, one for government agencies and issues and one for medical/health sciences information professionals. Executive Director Janice Lachance, who is nearing her first anniversary with SLA, surprised even some leaders when she announced a campaign to raise $1 million for professional development initiatives--a goal that could be reached in a year if each of the approximately 12,000 members of SLA gives $84. This article briefly describes events such as these that took place at the conference.
