Hello CDers, As Section Council Rep, I've been asked to let you know
about the event below.  Deb

MLA Personalized Résumé Clinic @2008 Annual Meeting Chicago

The MLA Professional Recruitment and Retention Committee (PRRC), in
conjunction with the MLA Placement Center, is delighted to sponsor the first
Annual Meeting Personalized Résumé Clinic and you can help!  First of all,
the PRRC needs reviewer volunteers willing to spend a minimum of 1 hour
assisting conference attendees in improving the creation of their cover
letters and résumés.  Library directors and associate directors (past and
present), department heads, and human resources officers, normally review
scores of cover letters and résumés each year and know the perks and pitfalls-
thus, we welcome your expertise.

Or would you like to have your cover letter and résumé reviewed? Each résumé
applicant will have 15 minutes with a reviewer in a meeting room located at
the conference hotel. During that time, the reviewer will critique the
applicant's résumé and cover letter and offer tips and advice for improvement.
  The hours of the PRRC Résumé Clinic will be: Sunday May 18th 3:00pm - 5:00pm;
 Monday May 19th 10:00am-12noon and 1:00pm - 5:00pm; and Tuesday May 20th
10:00am-1:00pm.

These hours of operation have been selected to avoid major conference event
conflicts.  If you would be willing to serve as a reviewer, please contact
Carolyn Warmann Carolyn.warmann at usd.edu , who will work with you to set-up a
time slot for service.  If you would like to register to have your résumé
reviewed, contact Craig Haynes chaynes at ucsd.edu The PRRC hopes you find this
annual meeting service helpful.
