From mrleach at fas.harvard.edu Mon Jan 4 14:59:50 2016 From: mrleach at fas.harvard.edu (Leach, Michael R.) Date: Mon, 4 Jan 2016 19:59:50 +0000 Subject: [Asistregional] First ASIST Regional Meeting in 2016 In-Reply-To: References: , , Message-ID: Hello Everyone, Happy New Year. Looking at potential dates for the February 2016 ASIS&T Regional Meeting at Rutgers University, how do folks feel about one of these three: 1) Wednesday, February 17th 2) Friday, February 19th 3) Monday, February 22nd Folks tend to have fewer meetings on a Friday; same is likely true for classes/courses. Note that Monday, February 15th, is the U.S. federal holiday for 2016, not Feb. 22nd. A rough structure of the day could be: 9am to 10am - arrival, registration, social mingling 10am to 12noon - program #1 Noon to 1pm - lunch 1-2:30pm - program #2 2:30-2:45pm - break 2:45-4:15 - program #3 optional dinner for those who want to following program #3 (like the dinners we have at the Annual Meetings). For the three program slots, we could have one theme, or more than one - morning could focus on one area, the afternoon's 2 sessions on a second area (as an example). Feedback appreciated. Thanks.

And we need to identify which SIG(s) will participate in this program - I have notes from the Annual Meeting in St. Louis that SIGs HLTH & STI had some interest, but my mind says there was a third (perhaps KM?), but I did not write it down. We need to reach out to those SIGs - or send a message to SIG-L and explain the regional programs concept - and ask for involvement - what do you think?

The SIG/s that you get involved might be able to also put in some funds to allow maybe more students to come with a reduced registration (or even free). Do you think that is a reasonable idea? -Heather On Fri, Dec 11, 2015 at 3:44 PM, Leach, Michael R. > wrote: Hello Everyone, Thank you for volunteering to be on this discussion list, which will be used to plan the first - and following - regional ASIS&T meetings. Some of you, at this point in time, will be observers, and other will be active planners. Note - anyone can chime in at any point, with questions, suggestions, etc. Does not matter if you are an "observer" or not. Right now, Chirag and I are focusing on a one-day event, to take place in March 2016, at Rutgers University. At this stage of the planning process, we need to: 1. Determine the theme/content of this meeting (we likely need to bring in some SIG leaders for this discussion & planning), and 2. Also reach out to local student chapters. Right now, we have the Rutgers student chapter, and we will soon invite the Pratt one; any other suggestions? In terms of a start time, we are thinking around 10:00am for program (with a 9-10am registration/arrival/greeting period), ending around 4:00pm, with an option for some to attend dinner together that evening. Not sure which day of the week, but we are focused on a weekday, not a weekend day. There will be a registration fee - but we'll hold off on determining that until we have the program/theme decided. What do people think about the overall plan, as well as #1 and #2 above? Thanks. Michael Leach Past Director, Chapter Assembly P.S. Thanks Heather for that response to my test email! _______________________________________________ Asistregional mailing list Asistregional at mail.asis.org http://mail.asis.org/mailman/listinfo/asistregional -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Now, we need to brainstorm on content: - We have experts at Rutgers, Drexel, etc. we could tap; - Our ASIST President, Nadia Caidi, can attend; - What would students chapters want? - Are there any SIGs who could present a panel or short workshop? Potential Structure for the day: 9:00-9:45am Arrival, checkin and social; 9:45-10:00am Introduction, speech by President Caidi; 10-12:00 Workshop - perhaps two, simultaneously 12-1 Lunch 1-2:30 Panel session/presentation 1 2:30-2:45 Break 2:45-4:15 Panel session/presentation 2 4:15-4:30 Wrap-up 5:00pm Dutch Treat Dinner for those who want to (or a couple of them, depending on the topics chosen. There could be two tracks for the whole day - 2 workshops in the morning (each a given track); plus two simultaneous presentations in the afternoon (for a total of 4 sessions). One could be more scholarly, the other more practitioner - just passing along ideas for discussion. Obviously, we need to decide on the program soon, so we can begin publicity. Share your ideas.

There is also the possibility of using some Chapter program funds to help with expenses. Tricia has a possible lead on some corporate sponsorship, that could help cover food costs. I'll pull together a more detailed budget and share that with folks - I just need some potential food costs. Publicity - yes, we need to get on that. Anyone want to work with me on doing that? I can do the initial write-up/blurbs, but we'll need to identify the best local social network venues/communication channels to distribute the info. And "welcome" to the Rutgers University Student Chapter officers - who were just added to this group. Thanks. Michael ________________________________ From: Asistregional on behalf of Heather D.

The process is usually as follows: 1. Contact Vanessa to determine all of your expenses (catering, audio visual, speakers, etc). Once this has been determined, she can help you decide on what to charge attendees. Do you want to 1 price for all? Will there be a discount for students, ASIS&T members or speakers? 2. Once the registration fees are set, she gives the information to me to create the registration form. 3. If you need a place to advertise it on our website, I can start on this as soon as I have the information. I assume that you'll want me to create a page online. If so, I'll need an overall description of the meeting. I'll also need descriptions for the workshops and panel sessions. It looks really exciting and since it's only 22 days away, I hope we can get this information quickly. Jan Janice A.
