Chapter of the Year
Los Angeles Chapter

Congratulations to the Los Angeles Chapter of ASIS&T for winning the 2005 
Chapter of the Year Award!  LACASIS supports a broad range of activities 
that reflects a wholehearted engagement of members in maintaining these 
activities.  In its programming, LACASIS is not only addressing issues in 
information science in a timely manner and providing continuing education 
for practitioners, but it is also presenting a vision for information 
science for the future.  It is not merely responsive to the changing 
information environment, but it is proactive.  It presented several 
cutting-edge programs related to digital preservation that are a unique 
contribution to the information science field and have potential to expand 
this chapter’s membership to involve the cultural preservation community 
in far more central roles than it has ever been.  This reflects a 
future-oriented vision, integrating the corporate, academic, and cultural 
sectors.  The chapter has a healthy outreach program focused on students 
and other information professionals.  And it is exemplary in terms of 
governance, record-keeping and planning.  Please join us in congratulating 
the Los Angeles Chapter for being an outstanding chapter of ASIS&T.
