ALISS - Café Press and Amazon stores

Looking for a boost to your wardrobe? Family members asking you want you want for graduation? Wondering how you can find Emergency Librarian merchandise? Still hoping to show your skill at cataloging and an antelope will do? Well, I've got just the place for you to do some shopping--hey, the economy needs a boost, doesn't it?

ALISS is selling some very fun merchandise at our storefront at Café Press:

You can find t-shirts, sweatshirts, bags, mugs, baseball caps, clocks(!), aprons(!) coasters(!), featuring two different logo styles. The first is the Documentalope style—the best looking antelope you could ever catalog; the second is the Emergency Librarian style—for those moments when only a librarian can save the day (and don’t those moments happen all the time?) Not every item has both styles but you are sure to find something that works for you--or just buy two!

And please visit the ALISS Book Store at Amazon.com. We are located at the corner of:

ALISS is the official student organization for Library & Information Science students at the University of Washington. All students admitted to the Master of Library & Information Science program (distance and day) are automatically members.

ALISS holds open meetings throughout the year to share ideas, concerns, and feedback about the MLIS program. ALISS officers serve as a channel for communication between students, faculty, and administration. The ALISS president is allotted time at iSchool staff/faculty meetings to discuss MLIS students' concerns and events.

As stated in the ALISS Constitution Section 1, the purposes of this organization will be:

1. To function as a student government.
2. To provide official channels for communication between students, faculty, and administration of the Information School.
3. To provide opportunity for social, cultural, and professional activities.

ALISS also sponsors speakers and panel discussions throughout the year and helps MLIS students and MLIS student groups with event funding through grants.
