SLA Mentoring Scheme

In response to members requests, SLA started a mentoring scheme aimed at new school librarians and it's now a highly valued and in demand service. If you are a member new to libraries or school libraries and would like to have an experienced colleague in a similar context to run ideas by, or simply reassurance you are offering pupils what they need, please do get in touch with us.

There are some documents on this page to assist you with your decision, but if you have further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. 

If you would like to offer your services as a mentor, to help that new sector entrant, or to request we find a mentor to be that support step for you, please complete the appropriate form and do get in touch with us at [email protected] 

Thank you to all our members who so generously offer their time to support those new to the sector.

Will I make a good mentor?
