Dear ARLIS/NA Members - Some of you have seen articles describing the role of the Chapters Coordinator (also referred to as Chapters Liaison) in your recent chapter newsletter. However, I want to be sure all members have some information on this role, so thought it best to follow in my fellow board members' footsteps, and send it via ARLIS-L. The Chapters Coordinator acts as liaison between the Executive Board and the chapters, just as the Regional Representatives did. I respond to questions and issues, and represent the chapters on the board. I also help coordinate board representation at chapter meetings, and I organize the chapter leaders' meeting at the annual conference. Recently, I have been talking with our Technical Advisor, Jonathan Franklin regarding using Memberclicks to give Webspace to chapters. This is something that the board wants to provide, and that many chapters could use. Shalimar Fojas White, chair of the membership committee and I also discussed featuring chapters on the main page of the ARLIS/NA Website. I see the chapters as the lifeblood of ARLIS/NA and would love to have them spotlighted in this way. As the year draws to a close, I will be in touch with chapter leaders quite a bit using the chapter leaders listserv. I'll be welcoming the new chapter leaders and reminding them of the newly revised Chapter Success Book, preparing the new roster, gathering chapter meeting minutes to share with the board, and of course, gently reminding chapter leaders to submit their annual reports. There are eighteen ARLIS/NA chapters, so there's plenty to do! I hope you will feel free to get in touch with me with any questions or concerns. best regards from the Delaware Valley, Cate Cooney ARLIS/NA Chapters Coordinator __________________________________________________________________ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/join.html Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.uky.edu/archives/arlis-l.html Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask]
