The Librarians' Association at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was organized in 1972 to promote the professional growth and development of its members, effective library service within the academic community, and a spirit of cooperation among members of the library profession. Membership is open to all professional librarians at the university. In addition to regular monthly meetings, September through June, the association holds seminars and workshops on special topics and sponsors two- or three-day conferences. Records of the Librarians' Association include correspondence, minutes of meetings, committee reports, and financial records. Topics of conferences have included library automation, library management, reference, scholarly publishing, serials, preservation, special collections, and roles of librarians. Committees include publicity, program, professional development, and professional welfare. The records of the Committee on Professional Welfare include material on faculty status for librarians and on employment policies for non-tenured professional university staff. Records also include three audiocassette tapes of addresses given at the 1989 Librarians' Association Conference.
