Special Interest Groups
MLA Sections have been designed to recognize most special interests within MLA. However, there are groups which have found it difficult to meet the minimum requirements for Section status and/or to sustain the leadership effort required for full representation via official Section status. MLA Special Interest Groups provide a forum for members with relatively unique interests to identify and meet with others with similar interests without having to fulfill the governance requirements of Sections. See the guidelines for establishing and maintaining Special Interest Groups.
