We are pleased to announce that the 2017 Chapter of the Year Award goes to
the European Chapter (EUChap)! ASIS&T Regional Chapters competed for this
award under the criteria of Membership, Chapter Meetings, Projects and
Services, Collaboration, Communication, Financial, Awards, and
Administration. The European Chapter has done excellent work increasing
their overall membership and extending membership to 6 new countries! By
adding new Country Representatives and continued collaboration with the
student chapter, they have experienced additional membership growth. They
have created an impressive list of publications promoting their chapter.
The range of chapter activities demonstrates dedication to promoting the
chapter and the ASIS&T organization as well as providing professional and
collaborative opportunities for members.

The EUChap has 190 members including 30 student members, 4 institutional
members, primarily academics and faculty. Since 2016, the EUChap gained 81
members. This chapter has performed valuable services in connecting its
members to LIS jobs and resources. They have held 10 events over many
countries as well as leading 6 projects collaborating with student groups
as well as regional groups. This chapter has active means of communication
including email, mailing lists, a wiki, and a social media presence, and
also has a well-managed budget.

This Chapter is no stranger to awards, boasting 5 nominations and 4 awards
including member of EUChap 2016 (Peter Ingwersen), Chapter of the Year for
2016 (European Chapter), chapter member of the year 2016 (Isabella Peters),
and nomination for the Award Crestos 2017 (Agnes Mainka).
The European Chapter has the highest membership, has managed its budget
efficiently and provides many opportunities for its members to engage with
one another and hold many programs distributed over the European continent.
Join us in congratulating the European Chapter for having a great year
promoting ASIS&T and displaying excellence as the ASIS&T Regional Chapter
of the Year.
