On behalf of the Executive Board, let me add a hearty thank you to Roberto
and to members of AWSAB for a job well done, not only for finding the ideal
candidate in Jonathan Franklin, but for identifying the need for the AWS
Editor position and then following through with the design of the job
description and recruitment.
This new Special Appointment post and Jonathan's appointment to it are key
building blocks in the re-design and streamlining of the ARLIS/NA Web Site
to position it for an effective future as a member service.
