Emerging Leaders Program
By Kathy Lowe

 Bob Roth is one of six school librarians in the United States to be chosen by the American Library Association as an Emerging Leader.

ALA President Leslie Berger's new initiative will enable the 100 new librarians in the program to "get on the fast track to ALA and professional leadership". Bob is Library Director at The English High School in Boston and co-chair of MSLA's Legislative Committee. His participation as an Emerging Leader is sponsored by the American Association of School Librarians (AASL).

Bob will attend workshops with 100 other Emerging Leaders from all types of libraries at the ALA Mid-Winter meeting in Seattle in January. Training will continue online for six months and culminate at the ALA Annual Conference in Washington, D.C. in June.
