Welcome to the NMRT Student Reception Committee's webpage! The purpose of the NMRT Student Reception Committee is to plan an event at the Annual Conference to recognize the recipients of the Student Chapter of the Year award and to provide current LIS students with an opportunity to learn about ALA, network, and socialize.
