>>
>> Chapter of the Year
>> We are pleased to announce that the European Chapter is the 2016
>> winner of the ASIS&T regional Chapter of the Year Award. In selecting
>> European Chapter for the award, the jury considered the chapter’s
>> membership, activities, communications, financial and administrative
>> management, and contributions to ASIS&T and the broader IS community.
>>
>> The Chapter takes advantage of the regional information science
>> meetings to hold their own chapter meetings.  Great focus on the 2016
>> ASIS&T Annual Meeting and the very important contributions to the
>> success of the meeting dully noted.  Also, recognizing the fact that
>> the students are our future, such collaboration with and focus on
>> student members is very important and essential to the success of
>> ASIS&T.
>>
>> The chapter surveyed its members to understand members’ needs and the
>> jury members impressed with the honesty with which the leadership has
>> identified the issues and is tackling the problems.
>>

>> gers-university/.
>> The nomination received high point with a theme of participant
>> engagement.
>>
>> Reviewers noted the timeliness of the topic, diverse and well-known
>> speakers, and opportunities for students and SIGs engagement. It was
>> well-publicized and well attended, both face to face and virtual. As
>> described by the nominator, this event brought together students
>> chapters from Rutgers, Pratt, and Drexel together in working with the
>> NJ Chapter, setting a good example of chapters could collaborate in
>> mutually beneficial way. In addition to executing a highly successful
>> program, this event created a milestone in ASIS&T and set an example
>> of how ASIS&T could create value for its members at a local level.

>> leadership to the European Chapter (EC) has been identified by several
>> members and officers. Dr. Peters has served as chair and advisor of
