This should be done both for historical reasons to explain why this has happened and also because there is till a ned to calculate the check digit for the 10 digit ISBN so that algorithm should also be included so people don't have to refer to older versions of the standard in order to get the algorithm Mark From needleman_mark at yahoo.com Tue May 10 12:24:20 2016 From: needleman_mark at yahoo.com (Mark Needleman) Date: Tue, 10 May 2016 12:24:20 -0400 Subject: [Asis-standards] NiSO elections Message-ID: We have to vote on a Vice Chair/ Chair Elect for NISO unless someone has a write in candidate it should be an easy vote as there is only 1 candidate on the ballot Chris Shillum (Elsevier) We also have to vote on Board of Directors Candidates again we can write a name or vote for 3 of the following 4 Gerry Grenier (IEEE) Marian Hollingsworth (Thomson Reuters) Susan Kesner (Copyright Clearance Center) Evan Owens (Cenveo Publisher Services) Any preferences - i don?t know any of these folks Mark From thornbug at oclc.org Tue May 10 12:36:13 2016 From: thornbug at oclc.org (Thornburg,Gail) Date: Tue, 10 May 2016 16:36:13 +0000 Subject: [Asis-standards] NiSO elections In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: I do not know any of these people listed, sorry. -----Original Message----- From: Asis-standards [mailto:asis-standards-bounces at asis.org] On Behalf Of Mark Needleman Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2016 12:24 PM To: ASIST Standards Committee Subject: [Asis-standards] NiSO elections We have to vote on a Vice Chair/ Chair Elect for NISO unless someone has a write in candidate it should be an easy vote as there is only 1 candidate on the ballot Chris Shillum (Elsevier) We also have to vote on Board of Directors Candidates again we can write a name or vote for 3 of the following 4 Gerry Grenier (IEEE) Marian Hollingsworth (Thomson Reuters) Susan Kesner (Copyright Clearance Center) Evan Owens (Cenveo Publisher Services) Any preferences - i don?t know any of these folks Mark From thornbug at oclc.org Tue May 10 14:21:55 2016 From: thornbug at oclc.org (Thornburg,Gail) Date: Tue, 10 May 2016 18:21:55 +0000 Subject: [Asis-standards] NiSO elections In-Reply-To: <26F661F5-B207-43B1-870E-C18F8C22BEAB@accessinn.com> References: <26F661F5-B207-43B1-870E-C18F8C22BEAB@accessinn.com> Message-ID: That's good to hear! -----Original Message----- From: Marjorie Hlava [mailto:margie_hlava at accessinn.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2016 2:18 PM To: Thornburg,Gail Cc: Mark Needleman ; ASIST Standards Committee Subject: Re: [Asis-standards] NiSO elections I know all of them - they are a good slate.
