**Committee Charge: The Mentoring
Committee's responsibility is to develop the Mentoring Program, which matches
mentors with new members at the ALA Annual Conference. The committee is charged
with exploring ways to use technology and up-to-date communication methods to
expand mentoring to an all-year-round program available to those who can't
attend conferences. The committee also prepares guides dealing with
mentoring.

program to become an all-year round program.
