Dear colleagues,

On behalf of the Executive Board and the Public Policy Committee, I am forwarding the response received from the Chair of the OCLC Americas Regional Council regarding ARLIS/NA's recent statement on proposed changes to the Council's Bylaws.

Best regards,

Patrick Tomlin
Vice-Chair, Public Policy Committee

Begin forwarded message:

Dear Mr. Tomlin,

 On behalf of the Americas Regional Council (ARC) I want to thank you for your email voicing  ARLIS/NA Executive Board's concerns regarding proposed changes to the OCLC Americas Regional Council Bylaws.  

 Voting on the Bylaws and ARC delegates to the Global Council continues through this  week.  I urge you to encourage your constituency's voting representatives to cast their ballot during the election.  I also wanted to let you know that the Global Council established an Archives and Museum Interest Group that will address issues relative to that community.  Finally, I encourage you and your colleagues to nominate individuals from your constituency group in the next round of elections.

Best regards,

Barbara
