The ALA EL program is a leadership development program which enables newer library workers from across the country and Canada to participate in problem-solving work groups, network with peers, gain an inside look into ALA structure, and have an opportunity to serve the profession in a leadership capacity. It puts participants on the fast track to ALA committee volunteerism as well as other professional library-related organizations.
An ALA division, round table, librarian association of color affiliate, state chapter or school library media association affiliate will sponsor approximately 70% of the selected applicants. Each sponsor will contribute a minimum of $1,000 ($500 for each conference) toward the expenses of attending the ALA 2025

: The Library Learning Experience meeting ( in Phoenix, AZ, January 24-27, 2025) and the ALA Annual Conference (in Philadelphia, PA, June 26 - July 1, 2025). Sponsorship is not required for participation in the program. A list of sponsoring units is included as part of the online application.
