  Hello to the 28 members listed on the Georgia Church Librarians' Group!
  Please tell me if this group ever has any physical meetings or conferences or even Zoom Meetings. I would love to be able to get together with fellow Georgia Church Librarians to share ideas, and eventually, even organize a conference. If you are interested in a Zoom Meeting in January 2024 to get some kind of organization or leadership in this group, please message me back. I see Tennessee, Alabama, and Virginia all have active groups that have a few conferences throughout the year. Anyone interested? Thanks, Amy

  I have just recently become the volunteer church librarian at Duluth First United Methodist Church, Duluth GA. How do I join this group? I am already a member of Church Librarians Network. Thank you.

    Amy, problem solved! I learned that at some point all of our groups we were reset during an upgrade in NING with "no new members" so I just changed it for the Georgia group to be open to "Anyone" who is a member of the CLN. You may join now! Be sure to let me know if it still does not work. Thanks for your patience!

    Thank you for pointing that out. Turns out all the group pages are like this one too. I sent in a work request to NING. I'll keep you posted.
    THANKS!

    The NING Help Desk pointed out what I needed to do. I have opened the Georgia group to new members. Over the next few days I will open all the groups.
    Thanks! Morlee
