Who We Are

The University of Western Ontario CLA Student Chapter is comprised of individuals who are currently pursuing their Master of Library and Information Science here at UWO. You do not have to be a member of the Canadian Library Association to attend our general meetings or to participate in our events. However, if you wish to become a member of the executive, you must become a member of the CLA.



More information about the CLA can be found on our About the CLA page.
