While working on my MLIS at UC Berkeley in 1987/88, I was a member of the
northern California ARLIS chapter. It was a very warm and welcoming group,
and I learned a great deal about art librarianship and the library
resources in the area. I agree that student participation in regional
chapters is a far better solution than student subgroups. Students should
also be encouraged to attend regional or national ARLIS conferences when
feasible. It's a great way to learn about the field and make professional
contacts.
