Abstract
From its beginning in 1944 with only 1295 members, the Public Library Association (PLA), a division of the American Library Association (ALA), has grown to nearly 12,000 members today with the stated purpose �to strengthen public libraries and their contribution to the communities they serve.� This mission positions PLA to: focus its efforts on serving the needs of its members; advocate for public libraries; and commit to quality public library services that benefit the general public. Based in Chicago and housed within ALA headquarters, PLA is a member-driven organization that exists to provide a diverse program of communication, publication, advocacy, continuing education, and programming for its members and others interested in the advancement of public library service
