Think BIG... Join BIG!

 

Now has never been a better time to think and join... BIG!

Why should I join BIG?

That's the second most frequent question we get. But it's a question only you can answer. BIG is not for everyone. It's for people who believe in the possibility of change and are willing to work for it. That's not always easy or risk-free.

But remember, as a government employee you are called upon to provide the highest quality of public service. As a concerned member of the African American community, you are challenged to exercise leadership and civic responsibility. You need to be able to influence the institutional forces that affect the workplace and your community. BIG is one way to do this.

You should further read and browse our web site and decide for yourself whether BIG is for you. If you agree with our goals and feel you can benefit from our programs, you should make the BIG commitment.

There are many reasons to join BIG.

Here are the top ten reasons why you should join BIG!

To join BIG is really easy, just complete one of our new/renewal membership applications (which are available at our regular general membership meetings or just contact the Membership chairperson below) and attach your dues of $35.00 for a one-year Regular Membership. After your application is processed by the National BIG Office you will receive your membership card through your local chapter which shows your membership effective and expiration dates. That's all there is to it! And you will be proud to be a member of the chapter organization that is working to benefit African Americans in the Library of Congress.

Renewing your Membership

Regular BIG Memberships are good for a one-year period and are renewable on an annual basis (please note the expiration date on your membership card.) Generally, within one month of your expiration date you should receive a renewal notice and application. When renewing your membership please complete the application (it is important that we are able to update your membership information in our records) and return the application along with the dues.

Life Memberships will automatically receive a new membership card every new year which indicates an expiration date for the end of that calendar year.
