Background:

Based on ALA demographics there is a need for a group focused on maintaining networking relationships among persons either retired or in late career stages, on continuing professional and personal development focused on the unique interests of those persons, and on utilizing the unique skills and knowledge of long-time members for mentoring and membership development.  The pattern of lifetime professional networking which it begun with the New Members Round Table (NMRT) will be continued with the Retired Members Round Table ( RMRT).
