SLA
The SLA is the leading association for information professionals and special librarians. Based in Washington DC in the United States, SLA currently has 12,000 members with 25 subject Divisions and 59 regional Chapters throughout the world. Each Division and Chapter has newsletters, publications and meetings, and it is here you will find a wealth of contacts in your own "special" subject area.
SLA Divisions
"The key to the contacts in your subject area"
The SLA has over 20 subject Divisions - each concentrates on information activities in a certain field and provides a forum for networking between members with similar concerns. You may join as many as you like - membership of the first one is free with additional ones US$18 each.
The list of divisions regularly changes as new ones are added – for example an Academic Division was just created, and in recent years one for Competitive Intelligence and one for Knowledge Management. Other divisions are industry focused, for example: Business & Finance, Environment & Resource Management, and Legal. Several cover more than one sector, such as the Information Technology Division and the Leadership and Management Division which is for would-be leaders as well as those already managers.

SLA Chapters
