Member Gamification is a fun and motivating way to recognize your involvement with ALA. As you engage with ALA through attending events, participating in discussions, volunteering and more, you'll earn points that reflect your activity. You'll also be able to see how your engagement compares to others through an interactive leaderboard, unlocking exclusive rewards and recognition along the way. The more you participate, the more you gain — it's that simple.
As you participate in ALA programs and activities, you’ll accumulate valuable rewards designed to support your professional growth, celebrate your contributions and enhance your member experience. Each new level you reach builds on the one before it — the more you engage, the more you gain.
