Dear ARLIS/NA membership:

As Chair of the Development Committee we are seeking a few new members to join us. We are in for an exciting year as we continue to push ahead on trying to support ARLIS/NA activities outside the conference. Our focus this year will be on the following items:

1. Reintroducing the Society Circle, including gathering and posting supporter and award winner stories to ARLIS-L and the web.

2. Creating a Development for Chapters Guide.

4. Liaising with Conference Development folks and working with the Development database.

5. Creating development related panels, webinars, and workshops for ARLIS/NA.

I am looking for new members who are:

• Organized

• Responsive to emails

• Can devote 5-8 hours per month on the above activities

• Are interested in furthering ARLIS/NA as a professional organization

If this is you, and you’d like to volunteer to serve on the Development Committee, please write me a few sentences about your interest in the committee or development issues. Members serve one year; renewable two times for a maximum of three years of consecutive service. Please come visit us at the Development Committee meeting on Thursday, March 10th at 9:30am.

Please let me know if you have any questions and thank you for considering joining this important committee.

Sincerely,
