North Dakota Library Association

The North Dakota Library Association[1][2][3] (NDLA) is a professional association for librarians, library staff, and library supporters that represent school, public, academic, and special libraries located in North Dakota, United States. "The purpose of this organization is to exercise professional leadership and to promote library services and librarianship."[4] The North Dakota Library Association was formed on January 18, 1906.[5] The association has humble beginnings – at the 1909 conference, there was only 18 members.[6] There are currently over 300 NDLA members (including academic, health, public, and school libraries).[7]
