The University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill's Student Chapter of the American Library Association (SCALA) is comprised of students pursuing their degrees in library or information science. They work to facilitate networking and informational events that connect these students to professionals in the field through partnerships with both the American Library Association (ALA) and the North Carolina Library Association (NCLA).
