Dear Colleagues,
 
On behalf of all our fellow officers of the Special Interest Group for
International Information Issues (SIG-III) of the American Society for
Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T), we are pleased to announce the
winners of the InfoShare awards for 2011. (http://www.asis.org/SIG/SIGIII/)
 
Information professionals from developing countries, where the cost of
ASIS&T membership would be a burden, are eligible to receive one year of
membership. SIG-III officers vote on a roster of candidates nominated by
ASIS&T colleagues or others. These memberships are funded by monies raised
at the International Reception during the ASIS&T Annual Meeting. 2010 was a
very successful year for the reception in Pittsburgh and we are thrilled to
be able to offer memberships to six(6) outstanding professional candidates
and four(4) student candidates:
 
Professional members
