ARLIS/WNY is the Western New York chapter of Art Libraries Society of North
America (ARLIS/NA). In these days of budget crises, ARLIS Chapter meetings are an
excellent way to strengthen professional and personal bonds with other art
librarians in the area. Members are located across the upstate New York region –
from the Hudson River (Albany,Troy, and Saratoga Springs) to Buffalo.  
The fall 2010 ARLIS/WNY meeting will be hosted by the Munson-Williams Proctor
Museum in Utica.
