American society is increasingly diverse. We need to develop a library workforce that reflects the society we serve. We are working with library directors and career center directors at Chicago area colleges with significant enrollment of students from underrepresented groups. We are letting them know about the career opportunities and the scholarship programs librarianship and ALA offer their students. They will work with us to offer students in these colleges a scholarship to spend a day with us at the 2009 Annual Conference in Chicago. Giving promising undergraduates from underrepresented groups a positive experience at the conference, on the exhibit floor, meeting with Spectrum Scholars, and attending programs will encourage them to consider a career in our rewarding field.
