The ALIA SA Group was revived in June 2015 and is a cross-sectoral group for all information professionals and GLAM members in South Australia.

ALIA South Australia is an ALIA Regional Group established to cater for all library and information professionals and people working in the GLAM sector in South Australia. It is a forum for members to discuss events, participate in professional development activities and network with like-minded colleagues within the state. We encourage anyone interested to let us know! If interested in getting involved, send us a message! All ALIA members are welcome to join meetings or events, as are non-members for a slightly higher fee. For more information or a convenor's contact details, go to the Regional Groups’ ALIA SA profile here: https://alia.org.au/Web/Web/Groups-and-Committees/Regional-Group/ALIA_South_Australia.aspx
