What's great about Enhanced Institutional Memberships (EIM)?
It removes the cost barrier that many library workers face
It helps employers provide consistent continuing education and engagement opportunities
It supports wider, more diverse participation in NJLA
It creates enhanced opportunities for engagement with colleagues throughout NJLA
It supports equity, diversity, & inclusion by allowing more library workers to be active members of NJLA, making an association that better reflects NJ's racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic makeup of libraries
