Statement of Purpose
The GLA Story Project aims to record interviews with Georgia Library Association members that highlight members experiences with GLA, the Georgia Libraries Conference, and libraries in Georgia. This initiative is not only a way to capture, preserve, and present the history of GLA, but is also a way to provide a fun opportunity for members to engage with the association by sharing their stories, learning how to capture stories, or listening to the stories of others.
