The UCLA student chapter of ALA was created to help promote ALA’s mission on the UCLA Campus. Our theme is Confluence. We are committed to converging our unique backgrounds and ideas, learning from each other and growing together as a community of information professionals in the various fields of information science. That means we value YOU, no matter what track you are on and encourage everyone to get involved with ALA events and activities!
 
Sincerely,
Liza Mardoyan
ALA-UCLA President
